Wild Roses: Austin Poetry Society Anniversary Anthology 2025

Wild Roses gathers the voices of 40 poets from the Austin Poetry Society whose words bloom with resilience, longing, beauty, and defiance. Like wild roses growing untamed at the edge of a field, these poems are rooted in unexpected places-flourishing in silence, memory, grief, and joy. From carefully crafted rhymed verse to expansive free-form meditations, the collection offers a powerful chorus of human experience.
