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 MOST BEAUTIFUL GARDEN IN THE WORLD
IS YOUR GARDEN(YOU!)
Your fresh vegetation.Spaces for perambulation.
Points of meditation.Areas deserving attention.
All of this requires concentration.For your Garden has time-limited admission.
The very concept of this Garden requires devotion.
Formed by parents,grand-,Ancestors-
seeded in origins as destinations.This is where you live.
People see in you a Garden,and a Sanctuary,too..
All that grows into the Light begins in you-
Sunlight,moonlight,starlight Illumine you.
Astrologers know this,botanists,too..
Your arms as branches or vines.Pistil of your eye's flowers.
Tree of Learning.Forests of Perception.More than metaphor you are
Aware in every growing moment-all Gardens are Green Heavens..

...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.
