James Bain says
“A big thanks to all who entered. Once again, the overall
standard was exceptionally high, and it was a genuine pleasure to read such a
diverse and impressive array of poems. The decision regarding the winner and
runner-up was by no means straightforward, but I am confident that both are
thoroughly deserving of their recognition, as are all the poets whose work has
been commended. My congratulations to everyone who took part and made this such
a rewarding competition.” (James Bain)
Congratulations to the poets who made the final
selection.
