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

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.
