Reading Between the Lines






Reading between the lines 


 

Looking north toward the twilight sky 

There, in the cobalt canopy 

The daylight moon flickered in my eye 

In between the steel pylons 

In between the copper cables 

And the blackened power lines 


I pondered, what was the moon’s perception?  

Of Earth’s domineering digital congestion

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.

  10. Wonderful, ponderful, important poem, Ivor! Great photos and song, too!
    Thinking about what nature thinks about us and our human-doings should make us treat the earth with greater loving care and appreciation. I often think about what the moon “sees” and it’s concerns. Yet, it keep shining for us, so beautifully.
    Hope your day is going superbly, Ivor!
    (((HUGS))) ❤️❤️❤️
