About

Buddhist Poetry Review is a journal dedicated to publishing fresh and insightful Buddhist poetry. Our vision encompasses the full spectrum of Buddhism, and we welcome submissions from authors who write from any perspective. Buddhists have used poetic expression from the very outset of their religion to elucidate and celebrate the Dharma. Our mission is to foster this tradition by providing a forum for new poetry written in that timeless spirit. Buddhist Poetry Review collects no money from advertisements and does not offer payment for poems. Instead, we provide this site free of commercialism, as an expression of metta (loving-kindness), and as a way for its contributors to practice dana (generosity) through the kind donation of their time and creative output. May these poems inspire a greater appreciation of the Dharma and serve to benefit all beings.
