Lost and Found – or – There, Here, and Where?





Lost and Found – or – There, Here, and Where?

There
Lying on solid ground
My shallow shadow wears no face
And utters no sound

Here
My outline bears no carapace

Where
On a graveside mound
I see my darkness
Waiting to be found

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.

  7. With that song and your poem I felt such emotions and had tears come to my eyes. Powerful and heart-touching. (I always hit the song/vid to play and then read your poem through several times. 🙂 )
    (((HUGS))) ❤️❤️❤️
    PS…the photo of you and Sir Frankie’s shadows is beautiful. 🙂

  8. Our shadows, are always, dark in color, and that can be interpreted as a metaphor of how our shadows are everything we don’t want to own up about our individual, selves, that’s why they’re all, darker in color…
