Welcome to this collection of my poetry, now available online. As you will see, the content of these poems varies widely. You can find poems about life, poems about love, poems with religious/spiritual themes, humorous poems, children's poems, holiday poems, and more. Some of the pieces are serious in nature; others are tongue-in-cheek, but hopefully, there is something for everyone. (To find the type of poem you are looking for, just select a category from the navigation bar above or at the bottom of this page. Specific poems are listed by name on the site map.) Thanks for your visit. If you like what you see, come back often, as I will be adding more poems to the site. I'd love to hear your comments.

The Promise
©1999 by Susan Noyes Anderson, Awaken Your Spiritual Power, Karisma Press
The sun will rise each day, and night will fall.
We here can only wait, and watch, and see.
It is not ours to tamper with the flow
Of nature, nor mistrust her majesty.
'Twas other hands, not ours, whose heavenly light
Kindled eternal splendor in the skies;
Another whispers peace unto our minds
When darkness looms before our faltering eyes.
And listening, we somehow come to know
That in the midst of darkness, even then,
He sends the moon and stars to light our way,
And promises the sun will rise again.
"Thy sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself: for the Lord shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended." Isaiah 60:20
