Watching, Waiting Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Steadily beating, rhythms of my heart keeping me going
throughout life, musically silencing doubts and fears
lying about.

Gaining strength, faith, hope and love as life opens
like a prayer book, giving blessings daily as I walk
through depths of an interior journey.

Soul taking my being into the divine, bluened, await-
ing discovery, an illuminating and exacting discovery
while traveling through a land of peaceful faith.

Entering a dimension of hope and charity that takes me
straight to edges of heaven where all is divulged in
open arms of God.

Living in the beauty of His mercy, soul open to His love
as I await the serenity only He can give to me, watching,
waiting, knowing everything will be alright.

Patiently standing by, containing my excitement, hoping
to be taken above and beyond where I am now, silently
praying that I've lived my purpose in life.
