Rain just gotta fall some time.
Fierce rain just gotta fall.

On Wishing, Well

Beauty is in the simple things
that ease into a willing heart:
Dusk falls, then calls forth starling wings
while sun and moon paint works of art.
Lessons from the Sea
©2019 Susan Noyes Anderson
The ocean, so constant and steady,
swells in silence to fall with a roar.
Seaweed circles around in the eddy,
gets caught up or breaks free for the shore.
Riding the Waves
©2019 Susan Noyes Anderson
I’d like to just let go of me
and ride the waves across the sea––
willy-nilly, to and fro
with no particular place to go.
Remembering You
©2018 Susan Noyes Anderson
The ocean pounding on the shore
Awakens with a crashing roar
Reminds me that you are no more
Still Waters

O be not lulled by placid sea
nor lapping waves
of harmony
Secrets of the Sea
©2017 Susan Noyes Anderson
When my own tides are at low ebb,
I stand beside the sea.
Bright waves of truth I used to know
come washing over me.
The Path of Peace
©2017 Susan Noyes Anderson
I love those peaceful moments of the heart,
when mind and spirit finally run free,
the fleeting moments, seldom set apart,
when every soul is stilled to breathe, to be.
