Nonsense and logic
What’s the difference in our world today
…….
I love nonsense
It’s my best sense
My creative sense
It’s my good mood sense
Free of common sense
…….
The ocean breeze caresses my senses
Like poetry pages fluttering across the seas
…….
My time flies, past my eyes
It’s time, time stopped flying
At the speed of light
Out of my blurry sight
…….
Oh, you do hide
Haunting, I’m scared
Like a pumpkin head
Under whispering sheets
Let me go to seed
Leave me be

G'day, and welcome to my blog site. My name is Ivor Steven, I live in Geelong, Australia. I'm an ex-industrial chemist, and a retired plumber, and a former Carer of my wife(Carole), for 30 years, who suffered from severe MS. I Write poetry about those personal thoughts, throughout and beyond my life as a Carer.
I've been blogging for over 2 years, and writing poems for 19 years. Of course a lot of my poems are about my favourite subject Carole, but since I've been blogging my writings have become quite varied, humourous, mystical, observational, and even a few monster/horror poems.

Those first 2 lines could be a worldwide mantra these days.
And some days I’d love to shout the “let me be” part too!!!

I love some of the whimsical things that I write in my comments to other writers works. It makes me smile too. And I’m getting quite conscientious at putting them in my Computer Notebook now.
