The Bedroom Chair 

 
 
It’s zero degrees outside 
and I’m warm and cozy  
lying here in bed 
However, there is a pile 
of my winter clothes  
on the bedroom chair 
waiting for me to wear 
Frankie gives me his  
get up now stare!  
wanting his morning fair  
“Yes Frankie, it’s time  
for me to embrace  
the chilly morning air 
and plunge myself 
into the filtered sun’s 
brittle wintry lair”

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.

  9. That Sir Frankie is a go-getter! “Up and at ’em, Ivor!” 😀 HA! 😀 What a wonderful poem! Fun and sweet! 🙂
    Stay safe and warm!
    Coop just got back from his “spa day” (groomer) and he’s feeling cooler (with less hair) on this warm rainy day. 🙂
    (((HUGS))) ❤️❤️❤️
    PS…I think many of us have a chair like that chair! 😉 😛

  10. They always, have a way, of, making us get up in the morn, NO matter how much we do, NOT want to, and, they work, way better, than our, alarm clocks…at least, the clocks, have that, SNOOZE button, and, our pets, they would not, let up, until we get out of bed and, take them out, to do their, businesses…

      1. Thank you, Ivor 🙂 Looks like I missed out the word Poem!! Another one of those moments where the sentence is in my head, but the whole thing never reached the keyboard 😂
