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.

Priceless Ivor, I’m smiling with the biggest grin! It’s so full of love …
This is so beautiful, your magic fantastical poem, the exquisite photo and that magic song ❤
Great poem Ivor! The perfect beach can be a paradise!
Today on this 4th of July in the states, many beaches are closed due to the upsurge of Covid-19! Bad news for the economy for sure.
Have a great day! Stay warm!
Thank you Ivor! I celebrated with my firest BLT sandwich of the year! It was wonderful with tomatoes out of my garden! That is really a wild poem you wrote for the 4th !! :>)
Delightful and dreamy!!! 🙂 The universe does so much to make our lives wonderful…we should always remember to treat it in kind. 🙂 And keep dreaming those night-dreams and those day-dream, Ivor! 🙂 It’s so wonderful how dreams often shed light on the answers to life…and so much more. 🙂
(((HUGS))) 🙂
