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?"
WE HAVE KNOWN EACH OTHER
over many celebrations/incantations/invocations..
Gather we for the 41st Annual Winter Solstice Ceremony
Woden's Night December 21,2022.We chant harmonic OMs
Herald in verse,anoint (with WASSAIL!)and ignite our Yule Log
Sing "Deck The Halls"hear "Pastime in Good Company"
And then the Call For Rhymes-my Solstice Blessing
Darrel reading Mary Oliver,Laura Freeman with original lyrics
Then we hear "I AM WINTER",sing "Somerset Wassail"together
Hear "Cutty Wren".Sing "Hunting The Wren" then "Gower Wassail"
Then another Circle Sharing-poems,stories,songs
Convene to all sing "Malpas Wassail",then "Green Grow The Rushes"
Last song of the evening "Gloucester Wassail"-then eternal conversations,
affirming our desire to re-meet."Merry meet and merry part"..
Another magical night!Repeat as required..
