ABPA - Australian Bush Poets Association

Results are out. Huge congratulations to the winners - 2 off the forum and one elderly gentleman who is just lovely but not techno inclined.

I'm not going to post them here, I will leave that honour to the winner.

Well that was a post about nothing ?

It is indeed a very great honour Brenda Joy. This was so totally unexpected and I can still hardly believe it's happened. It is difficult to articulate how I'm feeling right now, but I'm sure you can well imagine! I am obviously completely over the moon, so thank you so much for your warm congratulations. It is also humbling to be in such stellar company, and my sincere congratulations also to the amazingly talented Ron Stevens and Tom McIlveen.

Congratulations Catherine, it's a great poem. Lot of work in that one!

Cheers
David

Congratulations (again) Catherine

Terry

Just for you Bobbo - now that Catherine has posted.

Thank you David, Terry, and Brenda again, not only for your kind congratulations but also for your appreciation of the poem itself. It took me a very long time indeed to write and edit this particular poem until it was ready, so thank you for acknowledging this fact David, as this means a lot.

Catherine I loved it, loved it and loved it. Wow it must have been a task but I imagine one of great pleasure in the writing. Congratulations.
