Answer:

Australian poet John Shaw Neilson was born. Being of average build, he spent most of his life working as a labourer gathering fruit, clearing brush, navvying, and working in quarries. After 1928, he began working as a courier for the Country Roads Board in Melbourne. Neilson, who was mostly untrained and had just a rudimentary education, rose to fame as one of Australia's best lyric poets, writing extensively on the natural world and its beauty.

Explanation:

shaw Neilson's poems and details:

In the same year that his father won the senior award, John Shaw Neilson won the junior prize for a poem at the Australian Natives' Association's competition in January 1893. He visited Sea Lake in 1895 with his father, and a year later, The Bulletin in Sydney accepted some of his poems. However, his health deteriorated, and he didn't write much for about four years.

Between 1901 and 1906, he was a Bulletin contributor. Around 1908, Randolph Bedford accepted several of his rhymes for the Clarion, most of them of light or popular nature. Neilson's vision started to deteriorate in 1906, and for the rest of his life, he was unable to read much. His work was mostly predetermined, too. Neilson was a contributor when The Bookfellow was revived in 1911, and Alfred George Stephens, the editor, started gathering the best of his poems with the intention of publishing them in a volume under the title of Green Days and Cherries; Neilson was listed as the author of this volume in Fred John's Annual for 1913. However, it was postponed, and World War I added to that delay. It wasn't released until 1919 when the name Heart of Spring was chosen. Stephens prefaced it with praise and said that some of the lines were "unsurpassed in the spectrum of English lyrics." It was highly appreciated, and in 1923, with Mrs. Louise Dyer's assistance, a second volume

Published were Ballad and Lyrical Poems. This contained roughly all of the first volume's material in addition to 20 new lyrics.

Neilson visited Melbourne at this time and had several encounters with prominent writers of the day. He was becoming tired from the physical labour now that he was in his fifties and wasn't a strong man.

He told Percival Serle, "I don't mind some types of pick and shovel labour, but when I have to toss heavy objects over my shoulder it causes me somewhat a wrench.

He could have been alluding to his stay in the Heyfield region when he produced several pieces of poetry and assisted in building the Lake Glenmaggie weir wall.

Alfred Stephens advocated for better work for himself in newspaper pieces in 1925 and again in 1926. The issue was that Neilson's poor vision made him unsuitable for the majority of jobs. Nevertheless, a campaign to aid him gained traction in Melbourne, and he was given a modest literary pension. Eventually, in 1928, a job was found for him as an assistant in the office of the Victorian Country Roads Board. The Exhibition Gardens were immediate across the street from this Melbourne office, where Neilson worked up until almost the end of his life.

His New Poems book and Collected Poems book were both released in 1927 and 1934, respectively. Beauty Imposes, a second tiny book, was released four years later. Musicians including Margaret Sutherland, Alfred Hill, Cathie O'Sullivan, Llew and Mara Kiek, Richard Keam, and Darryl Emmerson have adapted a number of Neilson's poetry to music. The Pathfinder, a drama by the latter based on the life and works of Neilson, was developed for radio by the Australian Broadcasting Commission and released by Currency Press, Sydney, in 1987. It was very successful in the 1980s and went on two tours.  The University of Western Australia Press released Margaret Roberts' revised and updated edition of Neilson's Collected Poems in 2012.
