The 2024 One Page Poetry Anthology

The art of expressing a poetic theme on a single page is the premise upon which the One Page Poetry 2024 contest is based, and the hundred poets represented in our 2024 anthology demonstrate remarkable creativity and inspiration in exploring this premise. These gifted writers come from all over the world, represent all ages and every demographic, and look at the world through an array of diverse lenses unencumbered by boundaries. They write of love and loss, growth and fear, success and failure. They reflect on such important issues as inclusivity and ethnicity, war and peace, strength and courage, hope and change, and much more.

The poems included in the 2024 anthology explore the crossroads of the spiritual, the emotional, and the intellectual as only the art of poetry can, yet each poem is as unique as the poets creating them. This year's collection is symbolic of the writing community that is at the heart of One Page Poetry's mission: bringing writers together to express their vision and encouraging writers of all ages and all walks of life to share their poetry as a gift to the world. It takes courage and a willingness to be vulnerable to do so, and the poets represented here demonstrate this without reservation. We salute them.

All proceeds from the sale of this book will go to the World Wildlife Fund and Oceana, two organizations dedicated to the protection of endangered species and the preservation of their natural habitats. Thank you for joining us.
