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.

I like using ‘w’s’ … I suppose it’s a childhood influence from our old family house name, “Tullawalla”, and the antique sign hangs up under my back verandah, Derrick…
No such luck my friend, but on Sunday I’m with the Dome poetry group all day … our monthly meeting in the morning, a luncheon together , then down to the Drysdale Courthouse Museum for a our poetry recital afternoon…. maybe the computer might be working when I get back home in evening … 📖📘🌏🤗💕
Maybe, but even if it’s not fixed, you’ll be in your element and the computer won’t even be on your mind. Have a great Sunday, dear friend. Woof woof to you and Sir Frankie! 🐶🌏🥰
Yes, I’ll definitely be in my element, and knowing my situation one of my poet friends is kindly driving me to the event. Yeah … a totally worry free day 📖📘💙🌏
