Above the Mist

Today’s poem below, is the one I gave to β€˜Sandra’, my cousin Penny’s, sister-in-law, at our luncheon meet up in Nanaimo

Above the Mist

.

The train of peace and serenity
Has been sliding from futurity to eternity

But now, atop Mount Tzouhalen
Above the misty column of stardom
And above the world’s harbouring problems

I am in another home away from home
Within the Cowichan tribe’s honeycomb
Savouring nature’s harmonious thunderdme

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. The air may be thinned down, but it surely is, a wonderful thing, to GET away from all the noises down below, and now, if only, we can, take this peaceful state of mind with us wherever we may go, all will be, perfect then…
