Autumn 2022
Welcome to Volume 4 — DELTA POETRY REVIEW
We wish to expand the range
of subjects and voices included in Delta Poetry Review.
To that end, beginning with the February 2023 Issue, our
editorial policy will change as follows: The February
and June issues will be “Open Topic” — we welcome poetry
with or without a Delta or Southern focus. The October
issue will focus exclusively on work by poets who have
spent time in the American South.
A heartfelt thanks to all
of our contributors and readers! We hope you will enjoy
the content generated by this change. —The Editors
We do nominate for the Pushcart Prize and Best of the Net! We receive many wonderful poems that we wish we had written ourselves! Please browse our website and consider sharing your work with fellow poets and other interested readers. Also, please share information about Delta Poetry Review with colleagues, students, family, and friends. We look forward to reading your poetry!
Annually, Delta Poetry Review proudly nominates poetry for
The Pushcart Prize & Best of the Net
