Eternal Voyage
©1993 Susan Noyes Anderson, Standard (poem only)
A ship fades from our view; we wave good-bye.
Her sails grow small, then vanish from the sky.
And sorrowing, we bow our heads, and then
we mourn that sight we long to see again.

High on the mountain’s rocky crest,
an eagle soars to make its nest––
surrounded by nature’s majesty,
riding the wind so strong and free.

Daughters of God
©1999 by Susan Noyes Anderson, Awaken Your Spiritual Power, Karisma Press
Daughters of God – What glory is inherent in that title!
Offspring of an eternal being, what role could be more vital?
But there is more – our Father loves us individually,
for once we walked and talked with Him, and gathered at His knee.
Love and Lighthouses

Adaptation of A Lighthouse of Love
If you make the Lord your lighthouse,
He will guide your passage through
every shallow, rocky channel
till the harbor is in view.

If you make the Lord your partner,
He will guide your passage through

till the harbor is in view.
In Sacred Grove
©2007 Susan Noyes Anderson
In sacred grove, a young man knelt to pray,
a testament to his believing heart.
When darkness threatened, Joseph did his part
and trusted that his God would light the way.

The peaceful tinkle of a bell,
a sunrise dawning clear––
The Shepherd may not be in view,
but He is always near.
