The Faeries Minder (a Tanka)




Noble dragonfly

The faerie realm’s minder

Of exuberance

Good luck and prosperity

Beneath his wings of wisdom

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.

  1. OOH! This makes me smile SO BIG! πŸ™‚ Lovely photos, poem, and music-vid! πŸ™‚
    Aren’t dragonflies amazing!? I always count it a privilege to see one! They are so beautiful and other-worldly! πŸ™‚ I enjoy watching them dance about as if to say, “Keep seeing the wonder! Keep your wings working! Keep living life!” πŸ™‚

    PS…β€œMay you continue to touch dragonflies and stars, dance with fairies, and talk to the moon.” πŸ™‚
