One of the joys of poetry is sharing our thoughts, passions and insights with other people. And it's even better when our peers recognize the efforts needed to turn a hard earned phrase into a work of art! To encourage our poetic impulses and recognize our ability to select just the right word for that particular thought and deep discernment, WyoPoets offers multiple opportunities to submit work for peer consideration, publication and recognition. Don't be shy — your poetic voice is needed!
