- Reposted by South Glasgow Heritage & Environment TrustThis is THE Christmas poem for me, in its pure joy and wish for better things in the new year. 'Trio' sums up Edwin Morgan's wild optimism, which many of us need now... Monsters of the year go blank, are scattered back, can't bear this march of three... www.scottishpoetrylibrary.org.uk/poem/trio/
- Orphean sprig! Melting baby! Warm chihuahua! #EdwinMorgan reading “Trio”, published in The Second Life (1968) and recorded by Ewan McVicar in 1990 at Tower Studio, Glasgow 🎄❄️
