One Day, Not Too Far Away



Now, is the beginning
Of my flightless journey

The airwaves taunt me
I hear the wind call

โ€œaim high, beyond the sky,
one day you will flyโ€

I Shuffle my feet
And spread
My featherless wings

Flap, flap, nothing!
My ankles are anchored

Mother Nature smiles at me
โ€œtoday, is not your turn to flyโ€

โ€œyou have time on your side
now, is not the moment to say goodbyeโ€

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.
