Wind, blow –
lift me high, don’t
let go;
fly me
far, above sand
and sea.
Monsoon –
take me, let’s chase
the moon.
– Ryan Stone
Blue With Four Red Bars, by Antoni Tapies (b. Spain), 1966.
Drowning in Blue
Red scars
enclose my heart
in bars-
scatter
dreams, cause love to
shatter
like glass-
’til even hope
must pass.
Ryan Stone

A bit of this and that
The view from my front porch (in Pennsylvania) or back patio (in London) every morning, in tweet-sized bites
too much coffee, too little sleep, a love of words...
