A week ago, I was reading through a few comments that I had said on my blog site, about my poems, and in reply to my readers. Then I thought of this crazy idea, to go through all of my comments on all of my posts, now going back six months, and wow, I do like to chat, I found out, yep, literally “thousands” of comments. Unbelievably I decided to sift through all those silly words, and present a bunch of them in this article……. some Ivor Quotes, some humourous lines, and of course some of Ivor’s words from the heart……
The Start.
* “Yes, Carole was truly amazing, and totally my inspiration in everything I aspire to be and wish to achieve”
* “Just like nature itself, true love must survive the elements also”
* “Inspired by a concreter not showing up today”
* “Wow, there’s a world tissue shortage, this could be serious”
* “Between life and love, there seems no time to dwell”
* “Haha, I’ll bring my sleeping bag”
* “But I suppose that’s what nuclear war is, one big mass of human Stupidity”
* “I’m not really into awards, I find them personally daunting”
* “Amazing what an angry pen can write” and “The Adrenaline took over my pen”
* “Ha, the things that I say with a few beers in me !!”
* “I think sharing, is like caring for yourself”
* “Life wrenches at your heartstrings, continuously”
* “I know, I listen to all those poet/singer/songwriters while I’m writing, their influence is undeniable, and I’m happy with that…”
* “I haven’t got your sort of handbag”
* “I’m not that lovely, if I’m killing off one of the tattooed blondes”
* “Not sure how poetic I am, but I do know that my soul dwells in an ocean filled by my tears”
* “My frozen nuts are still thawing out, I suppose they’ll be ok, I’ve never frozen my nuts before”
* “Love is like a big creamy sponge cake, beautiful at the start, but if you eat too much, makes you sick inside….. hehe, I loved my mum’s sponge cakes”
* “Writing is wonderful medicine for my heart, and my words expose my soul”
* “Haha, for a little bloke, I’m not sure how I get so deep”
* “It wasn’t my fault, you readers made me do it. I was going to stop at my 50 word poem for SMM, but no, all the softies wanted My Dragon to live, so I had to revive him, and then some of my fervent readers wanted more !! Me being a nice guy had to oblige, hehe”
* “The answers are still “Blowin In The Wind” and that’s 50 years ago now ??”
* “It was a little poem for a little dog, but they give us huge unconditional love in return”
* “Us humans can be quite emotional critters”
* “Ivor, are you some sort of sadist, throwing all these melancholy words at your dear readers”
* “It’s supposed to make you cry, I cried my eyes out while I was writing it…..”
* “Like throw away words written on a boomerang”
* “Can I be at the back, of the front-line”
* “I do write unabridged from the heart”
* “I don’t try to do the unexpected, I’m not sure, it just happens that way ….”
* “I love waterfalls and I was sitting there in dream-time thinking of her …….”
* “Like the calm seas, may the cool waters caress your soul”
* “I hope your heart is bathing itself in the soothing oils of your glorious soul”
* “Well I suppose it was, and I suppose it will be”
* “I’ve never drowned myself yet, but I think falling in love is the closest analogy I’m able to imagine”
* “I like that, Sir Ivor, Lord Of Word Wizardry, thanks Walt”
* “Remedy,, my mum said, add more salt, … my dad said, add more water. Either way, every comment you make, is an answer”
“Double Humbug”
* “I’ll drink to that”
