One Bird (Theme Of Everything's Everything)

By: Steven Ilchev, 2012

Not a moment too soon, 

that hot-air balloon 

of what we call ours,

the flight of loving's herons, 

would take off 

and off, it heralds the map of 

vineyard routes on a day 

so unshackled 

So promising forthwith, 

so taken with bubbles 

forever blown 

and expressed on a canvass 

by sharers unknown 

of the undeniable unsettling 

down there where dots join 

and adjourn all the fretting

Binocular wishbones, 

the shooting of stars, 

champagne supernova 

and blizzards, mudslides

defining and rummaging whatever 

it seems, 

beachwalk-aiding bagpipes 

theme-crawling union of dreams

And when it all replays for aeons unforeseen, 

it all elucidates all that has been

so whole, so rewarding, the picture of you, 

the soulmate whose soothing effect hollers true!
