THOM THE WORLD POET: The Daily Poem

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 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!!" 

BEES?

OUR FALL GARDEN HAS BEE ATTRACTORS

Occasionally we see heavy bomber bees home in

and pollinate singular flowers (summer survivors

It is always good to see such pilgrims-

more welcome than those wasps and hornets 

who nest and attack randomly .They make no honey!

Sylvia Plath learned from her father

the art of bee -keeping.This was before neonics

and massive bee die-offs.Chemicals in our food chain?

Give us the purity of home made hives

of ancient honey mead making skills

and let Monsanto die.
