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!!"

PEACE WAVE
Before and after us,these waves dance for sand and sun and
moon
They
slap the face of beach into connected consciousness
Where
would one element be without each other?Moon's attractive orbit
summons
stars on water surface to reflect Heavens(which we do
Philosophers
counting waves as they come in ,then leave,drained
Aeons
have played the same-while we war on land and sea and air
Peace
was here among us,attuned and musical.Each pulse in vein
every
heartbeat refrain affirms this circulating desire-to be
within,among,
core
of all in meditative stillness-yet still in bloodstream
consciousness.
Dance
when and while ye can-orchestras of oceans call your name
Instruments
are @hand-wind,wave,stars,seas,pulse,blood,rhythm,beat/
all
know each other's secret desires-to be @peace/to be part of this peace
wave..
