"IN APRIL" - original photo and poetry by steve ilg

click to enlarge the photo for a more sensual hit...just try to tell ilg that diamonds don't last forever as they crash into your Heart from within this beautiful, precious, and dying snow upon my front porch...














In April

you go into the snow -

you do not find a
forgiving heart
but rather

silence perfectly
attuned
to the grace

of life.



- steve ilg

"Ilg is a modern genius of Renaissance Man;
he has cultivated a fitness far more whole than a Lance Armstrong
yet lives and teaches from a Heart wrenched from Rumi."

photo: and some spiritually-crippled people on Earth still think snow ain't sexy...ilg begs to differ. i grabbed this shot this evening after a wind-whipped 2" covered my front porch 'snowfield' with a most sensual layer of velveteseque powder in the fading rays of Grandfather Sun...
