Providing mutual help and inspiration for poets

Who We Are

WyoPoets is an organization of persons who write poetry for publication and/or as a hobby. Although most of our members are in Wyoming, we have several members located in neighboring states and other areas of the country. Our mission is to provide a base for mutual help and inspiration by encouraging interest in poetry throughout the state of Wyoming. This can be achieved by writing, publishing, studying, and sharing poetry in its many forms. WyoPoets is a 501(c)(3) organization as well as the Wyoming branch of the National Federation of State Poetry Societies (www.nfsps.com).

Announcements:

​
Campbell County Public Library welcomes poetry lovers—readers and writers—to a free workshop lead by local poet and educator, Doug Dumbrill on Tuesday, December 5 at 5:30pm.
Based on David Hinton’s book, "Awakened Cosmos: The Mind of Classical Chinese Poetry," this free seminar and practice will explore the world of poetic inspiration and translation. It is intended for poets and poetry readers of every level and experience.
Dumbrill will use the classic texts and Hinton’s literal translations of the Chinese works to guide each participant to their own unique “translation” of a classic poem. Along the way the group will explore the thesis that, “a poem’s true meaning lies between the translations.”

 

This fun evening for poets and poetry readers may lead you to an expanded poetic consciousness! Join us!
