An Old Plumber, An Ex-Carer, An Amateur Poet, Words From The Heart
The Flower Show
A Haiku for V.J. Knutson. Earlier in the day, I said to V.J. I was going to the Geelong Orchid Show today and she wanted some photos, and I hope my post here, conveys the beauty of the flowers that were on display …. I’m not a good photographer, and all of these photos have been cropped and colour enhanced…… And today’s Weekly Photo Challenge is: Edit... << Please click here to view, the “Weekly Prompts” site…
Hi, and welcome to my blog site. My name is Ivor Steven, I live in Geelong, Australia. I'm a retired, part-time 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 18 months, and writing poems for nearly 18 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.

lovely Haiku and gorgeous orchids! Thanks for sharing Ivor. 🙂
Gorgoeus. I have tried to grow them, but they are so difficult. My room gets ample sunlight, and I give them them the ice cubes, but they die on me each and every time. Very frustrating.
I love flower shows. Thank you for sharing your photos. I like your haiku for VJ too. And “The Flower Duet” is such a perfect pairing with this post! ♥.
