Welcome to the web pages for the Central Goldfields Bush Poets (Verse & Song) Inc.

We are a group of people devoted to the promotion of traditional Australian Bush Poetry and Bush Music.  We believe it is important to keep the Australian culture and heritage alive and well by remembering our past and focusing on our future.

There have been some great bush poets in our history such as "Banjo" Paterson, Henry Lawson, C.J. Dennis, Will Ogilvie and Adam Lindsay Gordon to name a few.  The traditional rhyming verse style provides us with a model for writers today to emulate the great works of those who have gone before us.  The traditional bush poets recorded a lot of our history and reflected on current events at the time.  It is the role of the modern bush poet to do the same today so that others in the years ahead may have a poet's perspective on the events in our lifetimes.

Our group is down to earth, with a deep love of our country and our heritage.  We are always on the lookout for new members, be they poets, musicians or simply people who want to be involved.  Our meetings and concerts revolve around an enjoyable time to be had by all, so come along and have a look at what we get up to.  For details of meetings, click on the "Meetings" tab on the menu at left.
