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.

You and your siblings are, very much blessed with, good parents, and, it’s a good thing, that you all are, still, connected enough, to, reunite as a whole family, to, celebrate these, important milestones in your families’, history.
So wonderful! So lovely! I know your parents were smiling down on all of you kids! ๐
What a fabulous tribute to your fabulous Dad and Mum!
