A fabulous poet named Tom He writes with such style and aplomb He deserves some soup glory as he tells a great story His poems are really ‘da bomb’! Posted with kind permission from Tom I adore his poetry and hope you will take time to give him a read and comment. He writes the most wonderful historical stories and also has a great sense of humour as shown in these two examples https://www.poetrysoup.com/poem/an_gorta_mor,_the_irish_famine_1845_1852_963334 https://www.poetrysoup.com/poem/the_great_cheddar_cheese_robbery_982860 01/18/18
