and it takes you for a ride.

Listen as the rhythm
of a heated, humid day
meets the drumming of a
fevered, fertile night.
Keep On

when you feel like there’s no winning
find yourself a new beginning
keep on
Be Mine. Pretty Peas?!
©2012 Susan Noyes Anderson
You’ll always be the one for me;
we’re two peas in a pod.
So plump, so round…You’re all I see.
My soft, green heart is awed.
First Blood

If you must cut me,
do the job with crystal.
Let ruby gemfire
lick (then burn)
your litany of
leavings
on my palm.
You Rock Me Solid

Not only do you rock, you are one––
That’s the honest truth.
I oughta know; you’ve had my back
since we were in our youth.
Biker Beware

Don’t let the green grow
underneath your feet.
It could be grass, you know;
though eerie green’s been
seen to bode no good.
Nesting, Resting, and Heroes

Nesting in a tree,
resting on its roots,
red-caped superhero sporting
camouflage boots.
