Poems About Places

Most great poets have written about places, but the poetry of place is often neglected. Poetry Atlas is changing that.

We believe that there are so many poems about places, we should be able to map the entire world.

If you have written a poem about anywhere, or if you know of a poem about a place, please email it to us at contributions@poetryatlas.com
