Back on my WordPress blog site, I have been re-posting many of my older “Moon” poems, and in keeping with my “Moon Theme”, this week, I am presenting “Blue Sky Moon” here on Throwback Friday, a poem of mine from May 2020


Blue Sky Moon (Revised)
I do wonder why
In our blue daylight sky
You are hovering there
Giving us your half stare
From your comfy afternoon chair
And not your usual midnight glare
You, our beaming day time Moon
With your cultured silver spoon
Have you a hidden power source?
And the cunning of a Trojan Horse
Are you able to save us soon?
From our poisoned gloom
You, being so open and brave
Without the cover of your shadowed wave
Ivor Steven (c) October 2021
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.

Perfect trio, Ivor! Your photos, poem, and that song! 🙂
It’s so lovely to see the moon when it visits us during the daytime hours! Like it’s saying, “Not to worry! I’m here!” 😉
