And true to tradition, pens took flightβ Each of us weaving a Yuletide delight. So here, dear reader, we share with you, Our Christmas verses, fresh and true.
Beneath the canopy of verse and memory, Christmas Table by Loner Deer offered its own quiet poemβone of longing, gratitude, and gentle farewells.
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.

Such a comforting thought about, “home”…many of us are still searching for that in our own lives, and not everybody finds that place…

Oh, I think I’m still searching, but I’m definitely getting closer and gradually feeling more comfortable …
