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.

Once more the seasons turn at opposite sides of the worldβ¦
AW! So springy and beautiful! The photos, (Hey, Sir Frankie! π ), your haiku, and the song. A perfect trio filled with joy, beauty, hope, and smiles!
Sometimes when I listen to that song I find it sad. Other times I see much hope in it.
Happy Happy Happy spring, Ivor! π
