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.

Your poem’s imagery is perfect! Ooh, very atmospheric for sure and a bit scary! But you and Sir Frankie are brave souls to get out and take photos!

It was so cold Carolyn … a lot colder than what our mild coastal climate usually is!! I think the midday darkness made it feel even worserer!! … but we rugged ourselves up like Eskimos and managed to take some shivery photos … ππππ₯ΆπΆ
Must be a remarkable scene

I love that when you are bundling up I’m sweating and hiding inside with the air conditioner!
