Rob Ayling writes: "Thom the World poet is an old mate of mine from way back in my history. Even pre-dating Voiceprint, when I was running "Otter Songs" and Tom's poetry tapes and guest appearances with Daevid Allen, Gilli Smyth, Mother Gong are well known and highly regarded. It just felt right to include a daily poem from Thom on our Gonzo blog and when I approached him to do so, he replied with in seconds!!! Thom is a great talent and just wants to spread poetry, light and positive energy across the globe. If we at Gonzo can help him do that - why not? why not indeed!!"

LEARNING BY EXAMPLE
KINDNESS &COMPASSION
ELOPED
they were hung out /strung
out
when they decided to
combine/harvester
crops of goodwill /like
rising grass after rain
soaked skin created laughter
allied companions
Banish/vanish illusion
aloneness/now two islands
form one continent
CONTENTMENT.Water underneath
flows subterranean storied
trees of apples and pears
Stone certainty /paper
promises/rattle drum and feather dance
Aye!To connect is all!To sing
sweet synchronicities into creation
into bone and flesh,blood and
sweat and tears alchemical wedding
making smile machines for
witnesses surrounding.Found again.
You have found yourself
again.Libraries and parks open 24 hours a day.
People throw their cell
phones away.Listen and converse,absorb ,reflect,meditate
deep.Water knows this.Land
blesses.Trees speak.Rocks /stones/pebbles provide stability.
Every Moment =Eternity!
Every Moment =Eternity!
