Re: KYABRAM -- Betty Olle Poetry Award 2017
Thank you, and congratulations to all. I know that Mick Coventry and his Kyabram Bush Verse Group are delighted with the response they received to the competition. Mick emailed me to say that the judges could have added "at least another dozen poems" to the list of winners.
Cheers
David
