Australian Bush Poetry, Verse & Music

This site is run by Ric Raftis, the Vice-President of our group. Pages on Ric's site are devoted to the promotion of Bush Poetry and Music. You will find a huge collection of various works from many authors. There is also a Forum you can join where you can post your own work, have a say or perhaps track down that elusive piece of poetry your grandfather recited. Ric also puts out a newsletter every two months with items of interest to bush poets. It also includes a featured contemporary and traditional poet. If you are a poet yourself, you can get yourself included in the Poet's Register and if you are a club you can get your contact details listed.
