Poems for the Flower Moon
Dandelion Scribes presents a selection of 16 poems to celebrate the rise of the full Flower Moon on May 23, 2024. Join these poets who seek out the moon for wisdom & inspiration– and perhaps write a little something of your own to share with us in June! Cover photo by Stephen Phillips.

Introducing the Dandelion Scribes
Dandelion Scribes is a brand-new publication brought to you by a trio of poet pals hailing from the Big South Fork National River & Recreation Area in East TN/KY. From the forest we all call home, we are honing our revolutionary voices, honoring our creative spirits, and sharing our words with the wide world– aiming to inspire others along the way!
