THOM THE WORLD POET: The Daily Poem

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?

THE WORLD AS WE WOULD WISH IT TO BE-

Diversity.Prosperity.Respect for all cultures.Religious Freedoms.

All of these are beginnings.Begun by benign intent and consent

To affirm what IS and allow it to BE-sans walls,wars,willpower

To  end exile and begin again-to thread Destinies together

So that Empire is not OVER others-more WITH them

and the land sings harvests bountiful/when peace and prosperity never end.
