    Neall Ryon

    Neall Ryon has been a poet-in-waiting for many years as he ventured through a series of careers related to business research. In a career devoted to observing and understanding human behavior he was fortunate to travel to many countries throughout the world; as he describes it; “traveled from South Island, New Zealand to Reykjavik in Iceland, and a thousand places in between.” While observing differences in language, culture, food and customs he discovered we all share one thing in common; our humanity. In his first book of short stories and poetry, “From the other side,” Neall Ryon offers both an uncommon view of mundane reality and a revealing view of the sublime. The book offers three short stories as seen from the perspective of a soul and in between these unique stories he shares 50 poems plus haiku or aphorisms, all of which touch on the spiritual ups and downs of living an experience common to all … life. Please enjoy this book of Poems and Short Stories.
