The Wee Sparrow´s Winged Words
Every two months, Winged Words offers you a bird related poetry prompt created by The Wee Sparrow Poetry Press team member and birder, Bronwen R. Evans. These prompts are designed to offer a journey through our connections with nature and love of birds, navigating the realms of folklore, bird literature, gentle ecology, and experiences of the natural world. Whether your relationship with birds exists through stories & song, your garden feeders, following them across the globe, or simply appreciating the robin on your morning commute, there’s a place for you here. Winning poems will be featured in our newsletter. We can’t wait to see what you come up with!
Submission Guidelines
- Every two months a submission window will be announced via our newsletter along with a poetry prompt for you to follow.
- Poems must relate to the prompt, but wide interpretation is considered. Although we love birds, birds do not necessarily need to be a part of your poem. We appreciate that they can make us think of many things!
- One poem per entry (unpublished work only).
- Please send submissions to wingedwords.weesparrow@gmail.com
- Please only include your name in the body of your email. Poems will be read anonymously, so please do not include your name on your poetry document.
- Please note any relevant social media handles/websites in your email.
- Please include a short bio (50 words max).
- Word docs or PDFs please.
- 40 lines max per poem excluding title.
- All the poems will be read by Bronwen and she will choose one poem per prompt which will be featured in our newsletter.
