An Old Plumber, An Ex-Carer, An Amateur Poet, Words From The Heart
My iPad Cushion
My iPad Cushion
In the mornings I like to lie in bed And use my iPad I sit up with pillows Behind my back And I have a rolled-up white towel That I use as an iPad cushion And Frankie usually sleeps on my feet
However, on this cold winter morning Frankie decided to snuggle up closer Which enabled me to rest the iPad On his white, fluffy head Without even a blink of an eye lid He was simply happy to be near me
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.

Ha! and Aw! Sir Frankie is such a good “cushion” for you! 😉 He is a sweetie! You 2 make a fabulous writing team! 😀 Keep keepin’ each other warm! 🙂
(((HUGS))) ❤️🐶❤️
You made me think of the third dog in my life, Jade, because she would cuddle up to me and I rested my elbow on her head. Other times she rested her head on my ankles.
Love this post, Ivor. Frankie is my hero! 🐶 I also do a lot of my writing sitting up in my adjustable bed. I put my laptop on a lapdesk, but a dog would be even better. ❤️
Ohhhh, how cute! That’s a smart contraption! I recently bought a phone stand out of cloth and sand. It looks like a little triangle, and allows me to be hands-free to watch the hummingbirds at the feeder while I work on my computer.
