Congratulations to all the winners! Sorry about the delay in posting these. I've only just come to terms with the new situation regarding the ABPA web-site.
All the winning poems have been published together in a book, together with last year's winners. (There was no book last year because of the bush fires.) All winners should receive a copy of the book in due course. Books are also for sale for $10 at The Singing Gardens.
Contact details as follows:

I would encourage as many people as possible to purchase a copy of the book. It's a great little production, and all profits from the sales will go towards the cost of running next year's festival.
