Thomas Fosbery Handyside

Thomas Fosbery Handyside was raised on a property at the foot of the Grampians in Victoria, Australia. He spent considerable time mustering sheep and roaming the land with his dog, Mac, with plenty of time to ponder life. Thomas was later sent to boarding school in Melbourne observing a very different life and intrigued by the inner workings of the big smoke. Following this, he undertook considerable travel overseas and working in many wine regions across Australia and abroad. Thomas’s experiences in life led to the start of this poetry journey; taking pen to paper and writing down some of his deepest thoughts. His poems evolved from these musings into the writings you see today.
