    Hi there Paul
    I am using this poem in a year 11 english assignment which is about the power of poetry to give a voice to the Australian Aboriginal people who have suffered to much under the hands of the European settlers. I chose land rights as my issue, and this poem really was helpful as it is succinct and blunt about what has happened. It also provided many different crafts for me to discuss. I have referenced it all correctly to ensure you have been acknowledged for your work.
    The only trouble I did have was finding information about you to give a short bibliography of the poet.
    Thank you for writing poetry – it is obvious that you write from the heart
    Keep it up
    - Holly

    Hey Paul,
    Love Your Poem. So nice
30. Josie June 16th, 2010 @ 8pm

    Hey there Paul!
    Wanna here my poem?

    Through the trees and out in the sun
    past the mangroves and jump to have fun
    black so loving and white so cruel
    totally different- love and cruel
    speak from the heart the aborigines do
    speak from the minds the white people too
    The difference in heart the difference in mind.

    How cool is that? I made it up just then! On the top of my head…I know its not as good as yours but at least I tried right???
31. Josie June 16th, 2010 @ 8pm

    wait doesn’t sound right!

    Now we we shall find
    the difference in hear and the difference in mind.

    thats better
