Rivers (an Etheree)

how
do the
rivers know
they ebb and flow
over old sandbars
where footprints come and go
fresh today, gone tomorrow
lost under the currents of time
dreams grow below clouds of hazy rain
leaving new watermarks in their shadows

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.
