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?" 

ALL THAT HAS A HEART

PUMPING BLOOD

with eyes and ears and skin

to hold them in/may long for home

that is other than where they are.

Something outside us calls

We respond,as migrating birds

sniffing seasons,making changes

To adapt is everything.To sing

within a consonantal wind.To burrow winters

Emerge in green seed Spring!
