I aim to learn more about and appreciate one of Australia's most prominent poets, Bruce Dawe. Poetry is a literary form that I admire and value. Consider poetry's position as a tool for investigating and reflecting on the world. Consider the usage of several poetical forms, such as free verse, rhymed verse, and sonnet. Finally, consider how certain words or phrases may have multiple meanings within the context of a poem. Poems are known by various names including: ditties, songs, stanzas, verses, fables, etc. A poem is defined as "a short lyric or dramatic composition in prose style" or "the art of composing poems." Bruce Dawe was an Australian poet who was born on 31st March 1931 in Melbourne, Victoria. He died on 4th January 2018 in Melbourne, Victoria. He was 79 years old. During his lifetime, he had significant influence over the development of modern poetry in Australia. His works have been praised for their innovative use of language and their attention to detail and reflection on society. He published seven collections of poems during his life time and two books of essays. Some of his best-known poems are The Rainmaker, Love After Love After Love, The Kiss, and Two Views of Angus.
