My New Year’s First Sunset





My New Year’s First Sunset



Day one of no regrets
For two thousand and twenty-five
My celebratory sunset
Contrives to stay alive
Blessing the twilight sky
With clouds of golden knives
That stunningly silhouetted
The hovering magpies

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.

I love the ” clouds with golden knives” – have never read that description before and find it most enchanting. glad you had such a sweet start to 2025, that twilight sky was a beautiful gift to you. Thank you for sharing the beauty of your world with us.
