Are All the Doors Closed?






Are All the Doors Closed?


Scores of uncultured doors

Closed pores of the old stores

Hiding drawers of past accords

The forgotten ardours of wise mentors


Now, just condescending decors to the new wars

Like cantankerous dinosaurs with itchy bedsores







Until Eyes Hear Sound

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. Thank you very much Willow … I set myself a task to have the “door” rhyme twice each line for the entire poem, it took a while but in the end the rhythm of the poem worked really well for me 😊🌏📖

    1. Thanks Nancy …. it was crazy of me to write, such a complicated little rhyme and alliteration poem … so I thought The Deep South’s crazy version of The Doors hit was very apt … 🎵🛸🌏😍😉

    1. Yes, sadly too true Carolyn … Oh my flowers suffered during the heat wave. … I set myself a task with all the rhyme and alliteration, but I think the poem sent the message of what I was trying to say. … 😉😍🌏🎵💛😊🚪
