Intense Realization Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Playing a piano in my mind, letting rhythms take me soaring
into other dimensions and universes, believing in the good-
ness of this earthly life.

Enjoying the moments that are given to me alone, finding the
feelings and emotions that death and loss have left me upon
photographic screens where they are all remembered.

Forever felt and realized intensely, a purposeful need when
writing poetry and composing music, even painting portraits,
a totally wonderful and intense realization.

Incorporating imagination and reality through intellect and
an open mind, always absorbing every detail in this poetical
life, savoring and placing them all in a poem.
