Gwyn Thomas 'You've lived'

Following the death of my sixteen year old son on April 18 2007 last year I have been reading Dannie Abse's book 'The Presence'. In the book he quotes Gwyn Thomas:

"Even if you only grow onions,
Breed rabbits or put ships in bottles,
If that grips you, you are one of the saved..."

I put this into Google and you were the only hit.. so I now have the whole poem...

Thanks
