Departure

I’m dressed in ocean blue

Delivering, my parting kiss for you

Again anxious, not to be late

Remembering, our first date

Then, life’s destiny and fate

Now, wallowing in our left-over wake

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.

  6. This perfectly encapsulates all of those components of a relationship that imprint themselves on us. Really nice turns of phrase in here too. Thanks for sharing, Ivor. Tom.
