It accepts any form of poetry, Terry, but rhyming verse seems to fare quite well. Both of Tom's winning poems were traditional, as was my HC, and I won it a few years ago with rhyming verse. So give it a go!

Cheers
David

Here's the link, Shelley: http://www.mrl.nsw.gov.au/WhatsOn/rolf-boldrewood

It's run by the Macquarie Regional Library in Dubbo. Not sure who does the judging these days, although Ellis and Ron were involved a few years ago.

Cheers
David
