You've certainly captured the spirit and passion of Thomas in this poem Jenny. And these wonderful lines really seek out the essence of a poet's imagination:
'Was there a boy's childhood wrapped in muddy woods,
with tremulous trees...

Enjoyed the read, Ross. And you set us up for the finale - in a very roundabout way - with Terence Trent D'Arby!

Yes, a fascinating period, the repercussions of which still shape the nation. I can highly recommend Maria McCann's novel 'As Meat Loves Salt'. Also Lindsay Davis's 'Rebels and Traitors.'

Many thanks airy & eds for PoD. This poem was written a long time ago - way back in the mid 80s I think - & recently revised. Moral: Don't throw away unsatisfactory early drafts!

I'm glad you didn't lurk in metaphor onemorething. Deceptively simple, your poem is a treasure of considered wisdom and emotion. Louise Gluck's later, intensely personal poems came to mind. Great writing!
