Haiku: Cold Rain
Time’s, I played in rain
Today I worked in the cold
Wet and shivering
Autumn’s fat rain drops
Have lost their warmth and softness
Winter’s hard as ice

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.

Thank you Isadora, I’m working my backwards through my comments. The poem above the sunflower was, “It’s Just A Little Dream”, it was published by the ‘Drabble’ magazine, and they supplied the picture..

Wonderful rain haiku, Ivor! I can feel the wet and cold!
I’ve always loved rain! Some people get depressed on rainy days…but those days actually bring me joy. I think I am akin to the rain…probably a cousin! š š
Stay warm and safe!
HUGS!!!

Sorry, Ivor. Message incomplete. Love the difference between work and play in the rain. Same rain, but different emotions.
