You’re welcome to visit my recent poetry posts on facebook at 'Alexandra J Cornwell - Poet'. My favourite poem, since first reading it at high school, is Judith Wright’s “Woman to Man” – although Les Murray and Bruce Dawe have their place in the Australian poetic landscape. Coincidentally, on the 20th April it will be 40 years since the death of the prolific Australian ‘drug poet’, Michael Dransfield. I wrote a short drabble about him on the ABC POOL project: http://pool.abc.net.au/media/michael.<br />Last September I discovered the fun of 'drabbles' (100-word microfiction also on facebook at 'Byron Short Fiction 'Drabble' Writers'). I am finding inspiration in applying that format to non-fiction historical and current affairs topics. Poetry has been my way of blogging, though I’ve been inspired by looking through the pages of generous poets like yourself and have started my own: The Drabble Writer’s Table http://squeakythongs.wordpress.com/, which also includes a little poetry. I should get on with publishing my own so I can 'play it forward' next year!<br />- Alexandra (Brunswick Heads NSW, Australia)<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5204148211881725106.post-63202383035658467262013-04-16T13:52:54.004+10:002013-04-16T13:52:54.004+10:00Thanks for doing this!

At the moment, my favourite poet is Banjo Patterson. The children laugh as we drive through Eaglehawk, discuss The Bushfire as they view immense paddocks, and are keen to go further up the highway to see Gundegai (and the maiden fair!) Waltzing Matilda is also sung with great gusto. So for this period of time, my favourite poet is Banjo Paterson.<br /><br />Kirsty Parkinson<br />Kirsty.parkinson@optusnet.com.auAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
