A Timeless Zone



I stood alone in my second-hand clothes

holding her worn out soul

gently, I slid her urn

into that hollow

inside the brick wall


a moment of heartache

hidden in a chasm of pain

stone-faced again

I stood alone in my timeless zone

not wanting to go home

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.
