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.

I had to use my ‘moon rise’ app, and compass to find it, Sadje (it gives you direction and altitude in the sky)

So sweet! So lovely! Your title, your Haiku, your photos and song choice! π
It is such a joy to find the color silver in nature! I love it in the moon glow, in the silvery trails snails make, on silvery fish or insects or birds, silver birch tree leaves, plants, and so much more! π
