Tullawalla A Meeting Place Where My Empty Hands Are Full of Memories and Rhymes
Poetry by Ivor Steven. Artwork by Kerri Costello

Dreams of The Heart

I cannot walk the continents
Like the intrepid Marco Polo
But my feet have felt the sands of time
Pass between my toes

I have not sailed the high seas
Like the courageous Christopher Columbus
But my body has bathed
In an ocean full of kind hearts

I’m yet to fly in space
Like the brave Neil Armstrong
But I have reached for the stars
And touched my soul’s dreams

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. Yes indeed Colleen .. I was going to give up hope, but fortune favours the brave .. and here in Geelong, through our Writers group I met Judy from Jaymah Press, also a local enterprise, and with their fabulous assistance, I have been able to self publish “Tullawalla”

    1. Thank you Dwight … one of my all time favourite poems, and I am over the moon to have “Tullawalla” published again … I have gracefully landed on feet again, by fortunately coming across a local editor/publisher in Jaymah Press and their wonderful organiser Judy… and we have already another book under way, which maybe published by Christmas

      4. I’m slowly improving Dwight .. I have to be careful and gentle with myself… I definitely don’t want to do anything to jeopardise my recovery .. my blogging and writing is not my priority at the moment 🤗😉
