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?


"I AM THE WINGS OF GRACE"
(Desiree Henley)
SHE LEANED TOWARDS ME
and whispered"Gratitude"-
"That is the path i follow
every day and night-to give thanks
for still being here/in Light..."
I was not sure what to say
Who can dispute Gratitude?
Thankfulness paves the way
to Acceptance and Trust
(Both of which i lack,and need,and must
apply to the invisible footprints i seek..
leading me to Pastures of Plenty
upon which i can feed.Here,
there are ducklings and Mother Dragons
Little and the Large.I give thanks for every Harvest

She turned to me-and smiled..

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
