An Old Plumber, An Ex-Carer, An Amateur Poet, Words From The Heart
Old Crow and the Moon (a Haiku)
Over on Weekly Prompts the Weekend Challenge is the word: ALONE. Please visit their fabulous site by clicking on >> Here . The Haiku below is my response to todays prompt.
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.

The combination of crow, moon, and sky are a good match. Well done, Ivor – and a smile for the closing song.
YAY! Wonderful, Ivor! Photos, Haiku, and music! 🙂
We get more ravens than crows…but both are a joy to watch. They can both be quite chatty and clever, too.
(((HUGS))) 🙂 ❤️

Great combination of images, Ivor. In the end, old crow always stands alone I think. Beautiful, mate
