The Sun’s Winter Glow

This morning’s winter sun momentarily slipped through the clouds just long enough to set the eucalyptus leaves shimmering.




The Sun’s Winter Glow


Mother Nature’s wryly smiling, silently proud
there above the lingering dark clouds.
The waning winter sun shyly glows,
and its diffused light knows
how to make the eucalyptus leaves sparkle
during the season’s arctic cycle.





A stillness to sit with, as the day folds into the deeper quiet where winter light lingers.

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.

    1. Thank you so much my dear friend … I did no blogging last night … I attended my local football’s club past players function, had an absolute blast 💥, but the old poet “enjoyed” himself too much 🍻, and the only cure was a good nights sleep 😎🤗😴💙📘📖🌏🎶
