Ravenna Taylor : Lagoon. Where a stream meets the sea. Thursday, January 29, 2015. Shifting from my dream. Shifting from my dream. I fret myself to wakefulness. Certain to avoid in future. What I'll face anon: the squandered. Perfect snow-lit day–. The pupils of my eyes dilated. My vision to survey–. I'll lose bright winter hours after,. Seasick, shading glorious light. In which I'd normally delight. 169;2015 Ravenna Taylor. Friday, January 2, 2015. Usually I'm so brimming-over. Doesn't make me a model.

Ravenna Taylor : Lagoon. Where a stream meets the sea. Saturday, February 28, 2015. 169;2013 Ravenna Taylor, "Holding Sway," watercolor, gouache on paper, 19 x 20 inches. This watercolor/gouache didn't go into my last online exhibition, the show titled "Plot Twist." It's about 18 inches square. The pale green is the color of this beautiful handmade Italian paper. I like to mix gouache and watercolor together, which makes a less predictable granulation and opacity than either one on its own. In reply they...

Ravenna Taylor : Lagoon. Where a stream meets the sea. Thursday, December 25, 2014. It can even seem intentional:. One's hair turns grey, and thin,. To match the texture. Of loosened skin -. A heart's fullness is compressed;. Might take less space -. Like gems, may give more light. One day we hear that a poet waits. On the Pacific coast to die;. Beyond the eastern ocean. Now a new girl-child lives -. Friends will speak of angels and arms,. Of their faiths. All tapped out. And the only way I know. New Web...

If I had no address, as many people. Do not, I could nevertheless say that I lived in the. Same town as the lilies of the field, and the still. Spring, and all through the neighborhood now there are. Strong men tending flowers. Beauty without purpose is beauty without virtue. But. Death, they are the bright ha...

Again Sweeping out the corners, casting dusty. Wishes to the gusts -. It's all they'll ever know of flight. My school-age body loved the wind,. My playmate and companion. We ran and wrestled,. We took to swings and slides,. Shared everything but my books. Now we nurse a rift. She's probably right to push me off:.

Ravenna Taylor : Lagoon. Where a stream meets the sea. Monday, June 1, 2015. TODAY, by Mary Oliver, and birds. TODAY, Mary Oliver. Today I'm flying low and I'm. Not saying a word. I'm letting all the voodoos of ambition sleep. The world goes on as it must,. The bees in the garden rumbling a little,. The fish leaping, the gnats getting eaten. But I'm taking the day off. Quiet as a feather. I hardly move though really I'm traveling. Stillness. One of the doors. From A Thousand Mornings, Penguin, 2012.
