Together in the Box Office Cafe 

Over at Weekly Prompts, the Weekend Challenge is: Sleep … please visit their fabulous website by clicking on >> Here.
I’ve been busy the last several days, an open mic’ night, a big fun afternoon at the Box Office Cafe (Poem below), Creative Geelong Market Day, and tomorrow morning it’s my Dome Poetry Group’s monthly meeting … And tonight, I am very “Sleepy”



Together in the Box Office Cafe 

 
 
As is Frankie’s way 
In his cute and friendly manner  
He invited three young ladies  
To join us at our table 
And as in Tullawalla’s, ‘a meeting place’  
We quickly became cheekily friendly and chatty 
They were inquisitive about what I was writing, 
and my books, ‘Perceptions’ and ‘Until Eyes Hear Sound’ 
 
The three “train-driver” ladies jokingly agreed 
“Youth is wasted on the young” 
Then, Ivor, Frankie, Carla, Mandy, and Emily 
Shared pup-cups, cappuccino, and latte 
Along with some neuro-cool glasses  
Of vodka, prosecco, and martini 
 
Thanks to the ladies, we had a fun afternoon 
Frankie lapped up all their extra cuddles  
And Carla kindly purchased 
Signed copies of, ‘Tullawalla’ and ‘Perceptions’

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.
