My Sisters Are Born
In 1999 my poetry was published in 'Vivid three' - A collection of creative writing from the Victorian College of The Arts - School of Studies in Creative Arts.
​
Milks Just Super!
When I was in primary school I wrote a poem for a competition running in the 'M-Team Magazine' (a fun publication for school children which promoted the dairy industry) and I won!
​
This is worth mentioning because it was very exciting to see my poem published in the magazine AND I won an ice cream maker (which is still going strong today).
​
Here’s what I can remember…
Milk’s Just super as the M Team say
So if you haven’t tried it, try some today
But don’t expect a miracle from drinking just one glass,
Cos nothing else will happen if it’s also your last!
