"Splendour Never Escapes" [2004] by Sir Steven Ilchev

Splendour Never Escapes

/Steven Ilchev, 2004/


=========================================
To the legend of anything and everything legendary and beyond,

The real-life statue of humane interaction breathing from within

And radiating ever so gently from without – the most unselfish

Character in a film called My Life Alive and Kicking,

My creative, inspirational and never deprived of worldly wisdom

Mum… Mums, you are an example of unsurpassed splendour

That simply can't ever escape… don't you dare forget it!
=========================================



Feel the poignant sunshine radiating from within the green,

green grass of goodness as you walk upon a lawn

that belies the power of the soil crumbling underneath

your feet as you galvanise every bit of yourself!



Poetry in sliding motion through mountain rivers

cascading towards your unspoilt dreamy eyes like

manoeuvring opalescent dribblers of a game so beautiful

it becomes us



The game of natural splendour questionnaires

you and the green lawn, the emancipated trees...

and the wistful music of hedgerows stretching

for many an unforseen mile...



Splendour never escapes... not when it comes from your

loving self… not when it redefines the immense gentle

strength man could've never learned from anywhere else

but from the versatile you...



Mum, you are a legend in your own right and splendour


never escapes me because of that!



======================================
From your son who terrorises words and language but in a sweet,
sometimes idiotic kind of way, to you, the mum of all mums...
