Welcome to Poets in the Pines

From loss, we make language. From ache, we make art. From art, we remember our shared humanity.

Hey there, wanderer.
If you’ve ever scribbled lines in a notebook, whispered poems to trees, or felt something sacred stir in your chest at the sound of truth—
you’re in the right place.

Poets in the Pines is a poetry community in the making—
a gathering of kindred spirits: writers, feelers, seekers, and rebels who know that language is magic, and sharing it can change everything. In a world where we need to remember our humanity more than ever, creating art is an act of sacred rebellion and vital to our survival.

We’re still building this space (think cozy campfire energy, not a polished stage), and you’re invited to help shape it.

Here’s what we’re dreaming up:
🌲 A grief anthology that holds space for loss in all its raw, tangled forms
🌲 Writing circles, open mics, and creative rituals under metaphorical (and maybe actual) pines
🌲 A place to be real, be seen, and be moved—by each other and by the words we write

Whether you're published or just writing poems on your phone at midnight, there's room for you here.

So come on in.
Bring your truth. Bring your weird. Bring your joy, your grief, your humanity.
Let’s make something beautiful together.
