If you know of a distinguished Kansas poet who is not yet included in this section of KansasPoets.com, thank you for letting them know about this site and opportunity!

 

 

This section of kansaspoets.com is not a literary journal, nor is it a contest, it is for archival purposes only! 

The intent of this collection is to recognize distinguished KANSAS poets who currently live or previously resided in the state.  All contributors whose poems appear on the website retain the rights to their work.

All solicited and/or submitted poetry and associated material will be "blindly" reviewed by a panel of four distinguished poets. Their unanimous decision as to the merit of the writing is the deciding factor for posting to this archival collection.

Never before published and previously published poems appear on these page.  If previously published, poems include credits when made available.

Suggestions for the growing poets list are welcome.

Poetry from contributing writers and their biographies will appear on these pages as they are submitted. Please know that it might take 1-6 weeks before acquired material is posted to the site once approved.

*The Kansas Poets section of this site recognizes distinguished  "Kansas poets" that currently live or previously resided in the state.  If possible, when inquiring about inclusion and providing material for this section, please provide at least one poem that  in some way reflects Kansas.

Criteria for inclusion in this section includes one (1) of the following:

       ●  Author of a published book of poetry awarded by a notable press

       ●  Author of a published chapbook of poetry awarded
              by a notable press or journal
             
       ●  Poetry published in minimum of 20 different recognized periodicals

       ●  Author of a self-published book of poetry appropriately recognized
             for its literary sophistication and merit or award

         ► Inquire about Submitting

Notice: In an effort to maintain the credibility of this section's representation of "distinguished" Kansas poets, the final decision
of having one's poetry appearing rests on the input and unanimous decision of four esteemed, award winning Kansas poets.
