Moving Along Avenues Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Silencing effects of another time, taking their toll
now, as I attempt to enhance inner life through writing
constantly.

Being in an attitude and mood of genuine happiness,
moving along avenues in peaceful serenity.

Taking the time to become myself, only knowing that I
need to be alone to recharge inner batteries.

Lasting friendship with self is an unconditional love -
love of self that I hold onto and cherish lovingly
throughout life and it's hardships.
