* Poetic Renewal Poem by Terence George Craddock

Written in March 1995 on the 18.3.95. (Found the date on a draft!)
I cannot write the exact date this poem was written, several folders of my poems from this era were stolen from the so called Art Hotel in Westport New Zealand, when we were moving from there to Pakington House in Westport, during those homeless days of two years with the four of us mostly living in one room accommodation. It will be difficult to rewrite some poems from draft notes, but we will try, luckily the next four poems I am about to post had a dateless typed copy. It is the nature of a thief to steal, it is the nature of artists to produce, and those who would nurture to give freely.
