Rob Ayling, yer Gonzo Grande Fromage, 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 Thom'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 within 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?
EVERY BORROWED MOMENT IS
UNIQUE
It is also golden ,and shining,with
promise and portent
To be allowed in to the secret of
today
To open the envelope of
possibilities
Ones that could not have been explored
until now
and may not last until tomorrow.Which
means
we need to see today as precious.Some
will leave today,
and not return.Some will delay
today,sleep through it
in hospitals or hospice.To be given
this bag of seconds
These ticking minutes.These
astonishing moments.
It means more than the way you choose
to see today
It is the way you choose -to BE
today
