"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 and 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!!"

I AM 87,&LOVE HAS CHANGED
Each day,eye learn to love this only
day-
to become intimate with Gaia's
blessings
to see and hear trees in their own
right
even when winds rustles/rattles
them
i love my garden,even
summer-scorched
i love my past loves,even though they are
gone
i still have the love of my life
for my life is long
i have each day-a gift from gentler
gods
i have my friends-who carry my life
on
and making memories /that still beam
strong
even when eye string &squeeze them lean
and long
and i have this voice
that sometimes turns to song
