Thank you, Anni. Maybe I'm a masochist because I do like making things difficult for myself. I considered rhyming each line as well, but that was a bridge too far. Perhaps next time...
Ah, Thomas and your hallowed verse,
singing in your Welsh voice loud and
drunken in the bars of England beyond
the power and majesty of your words,
it’s no wonder that we celebrate you,
your rage against age that welcomes
meekly death as a final release, relief,
we listen spellbound to your beauty.
