My Vision (a Senryu)

A quiet morning reply to Bart’s Fraiku, my worn lenses lifting me toward today’s blurry blue sky.
Bart >> Fraiku: For Your Eyes | Bartholomew Barker, Poet


My Vision (a Senryu)


In front of my eyes
Beyond dust-covered lenses
I pause to see more





And the vision carried on beyond the frame.

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. Sensational reply poem, Ivor!
    Taking time to pause and to see more are wonderful qualities! Amazing what we see, feel, hear, think, and learn when we do. 🙂
    And as eyes age and glasses blur to continue to see with our hearts and souls is the way to live. 🙂
    (((HUGS))) ❤️❤️❤️
