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?"
MORNING RAIN
3 am this morning
Darkness and Alexa
warns of rain all day
I walk outside to check
For i love rain in all her moods
Gentle foggy mists Lake District
Grizzly drizzle Yorkshire
Cute Cornwall droplets
All her many languages
This early morning kissed our new plants
Lifted their green faces to the skies
Added moisture to the dusts of pasts
For every rain is new/original
Every drop a kiss upon the face
So i walked out like Laurie Lee
I walked out like Jack Kerouac
I walked out while drops plopped around me
And i am smiling because of it
NIGHT RAIN DIFFERENT TO MORNING RAIN
Afternoon rain different to twilight rain
Like a raga -every moment has counted raindrops
They form a Union ,and go on strike @STARBUCKS
