    That every poem relates implicitly to a particular dramatic situation is a comment able to be accurately applied to the poetry of well-known Australian poet‚ Judith Wright. Whilst Wright’s poetry covers many different themes relating to Australian society‚ it is clear that Wright‚ in many of her poems‚ makes clear reference to certain events.

The main idea in this article is to
