Throwback Friday, Morning Starshine

Today’s Throwback Friday poem is a hidden gem from March 2018, and as is my way, I have made some changes, all for the better I hope …




Morning Starshine (Revised)


asleep, out of view

dawn blazes through

blinds me from above

piercing my dreams of love

uncovering memory heartbeats

exposed to the future’s one-way streets

letters sprinkle over my pillow

etching words upon yesterday’s halo

“reflective pages and blotches

wooden posts and hollow notches

under cracked foundation blocks

narrow jargon and hidden plots

inside poems of mine

glazed with her starshine“

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.
