The
Verse Of Laurie Meintjes
A bit
of a bio on myself:
Well,
I'm a retired teacher, living in Cooranbong NSW, a small town near
Newcastle. I have always been keen on writing verse, especially humorous
verse, and have had a few poems published in magazines.
As a younger
man I spent many years as a Patrol Officer in New Guinea and this
gave me a bit of a feel for the bush and the outdoors.
Ambition:
To earn my spurs as a "bush poet" and to have a collection of bush
poems published in Australia.
