April showers bring May flowers
(nature goes to work)
May blooms bring June prom-night rooms
(parents go berserk)

Living Water: Cleansing the Disciples

Leather sandals, dusty feet,
soles worn out in service.
Lessons taught, lessons learned;
stilled souls waiting, nervous.
Service, Ritual, Redemption:
Washing the Disciple’s Feet

To bathe soiled feet was but a servant’s lot,
eschewed by men whose station lent them grace.
These did not stoop to take a lowly place,
nor pause to wonder if, one day, they ought.
The Happy Tree

I’m swinging on the happy tree,
in love with everything I see.
White, fluffy clouds and bright blue sky
reach out for me as I fly by.
Prince Charming and Other Myths
©2010 Susan Noyes Anderson (poem only)
If all your world is painted blue,
Then no one else can change your view.
No pretty words or handsome face
Will make your world a brighter place.
Vistas

Who looks at the world
from a soaring height
with a lofty point of view
A Lent Well Spent

ignoring Lent
was never meant
the message simply wasn’t sent
Life Flight
©2011 Susan Noyes Anderson (poem only)
There is a time to test our wings…
to strike out on our own.
But those who go the distance
rarely choose to fly alone.
