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.

Magnificent poem, dear Ivor; you have touched my heart this morning. Wonderful accompanying video. 🥰
Yes, you do! 🙂
Such a fabulous, powerful, heart-touching post, Ivor…your photos, van Gogh quote, your poem, and the song/vid! All of this brings me joy, hope, and reminds me to keep going forward! Thank you! 🙂
Your photo of the brave bird flying high against the moody, cloudy sky bring tears to my eyes. So beautiful! 🙂
(((HUGS))) ❤️❤️❤️
Oh, thank you for your all of your fabulous words, Carolyn … it’s probably a poem that can be interpreted in different ways … a story about my life’s trials and tribulations … my emotions over these past few nostalgic weeks .. or, the challenges of my upcoming trip to Canada 😍🌏💕📘🇨🇦🐶
Thank you very much dear Cindy … my arms are getting tired, but mum always said I had a big heart, so I should be able to make to Canada in August and row my way back in September 🇨🇦🌏😍
Yes, visiting my cousins on Vancouver Island and then doing a road trip Wainwright (Alberta) to see my other cousin, will be “a dream come true” adventure for me, Cindy 🇨🇦😍🌏📘💕
