An Old Plumber, An Ex-Carer, An Amateur Poet, Words From The Heart
Water-wrinkled Hands And Sand Between My Toes, is up at Coffee House Writers Magazine
Hello dear readers and followers, as you may know, I now write for “Coffee House Writers” magazine on a fortnightly basis, and my poem “Water-wrinkled Hands And Sand Between My Toes”, is in this weeks edition of Coffee House Writers Magazine. … please click on the link below to read my poem, at Coffee House Writers >> https://coffeehousewriters.com/water-wrinkled-hands/
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.

Me, too! When sand between the toes and water-wrinkled hands are good things! 😉 😀
For years we lived 7 miles from the Pacific Ocean and spent a LOT of time at the beach. No matter how hard we tried to prevent it…our station wagon got nicknamed The Sandymobile! 😉 HA! 😀
Refreshingly happy! 🙂

Somebody said refreshingly happy. I want to see the cyperbunk dudes with guns blazing as they run across the laid-down bodies.
