Until Eyes Hear Sound:
The title “Until Eyes Hear Sound” could mean different things depending on your interpretation. It could be a poetic expression, a metaphor for waiting for something to happen, or a state of deep concentration where one is so focused on one’s inner vision that one becomes oblivious to external sounds. Ivor’s poems do not suggest having the answers, but his words encourage you to think about our environment, as he ponders the purpose of our existence in the universe.
“If you love poetry that challenges, inspires, and moves you, this book is for you”.
