Living On Solid Ground

Under a shady tree, I grow
I wriggle my toes
Into the moist mossy mound
Where the sun never touches the ground


I push upward without a sound
Wearing a small golden crown
That covers my short nightgown
Then I open and shakedown
Over the undergrowth’s brown eiderdown

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.
