Until I Walk Out of Sight (a Tanka)

From beyond the night
Where the dark side is my light
Blackthorns are my crown
That I wear above my frown
Until I walk out of sight

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 for lovely words, Carolyn … I’m really pleased with how the presentation of my “Tanka’s” one at a time from the Sunflower Tanka Anthology, seem to be more interesting and effective with my photos and suitable music videos…. 😍🌏🤗😎💕🐶🌻🌗🌞
