Five Birds (a Tanka)

Birds on a light post
Witnessing the world below
Five jurors on hold
The verdict is forever
Blowing in the winds of time

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 Sadje … the “Canva” recognition award came as an unexpected surprise … I had no idea how many ‘Canva App’ designs I had created … πŸ˜ŠπŸ˜πŸ“˜

    And this is a fabulous posting…photos, poem, and song/vid!
    I enjoy seeing birds gathering…I always imagine what they might be chatting about. πŸ™‚ And then off they fly…things to do, places to see! πŸ˜‰ πŸ™‚

    1. As you know, birds are a great part of our morning walkies … I love photographing them and certainly promote my thoughts about their relationship with nature and our world πŸ˜ŠπŸ˜πŸŒπŸŽΆπŸ•ŠοΈπŸΆπŸ“–πŸ’•
