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 truth in your words, your poem…so relatable to all of us. You’ve expressed this so well, Ivor! And your poem “hugged” ( 🙂 ) by your photos and that song is perfection. 🙂 That song…always reminds me of Mr. Robert Johnson.
(((HUGS))) and ❤️❤️ for you and Frankie!!! 🙂
Yes, it’s one of my fav’ Cream song, and thank you for thoughtful comments about the overall presentation of my creative article, Carolyn … (((HUGS))) 📃📘🌞🌗🌏😎

Yes, we all have our paths to follow, and those paths all have a crossroad, and ‘maybe’ the crossroad is at the bottom of our stairway …
