Gather

Gather Poets, an international poetry community, presents its first anthology-a sustained conversation shaped into a single volume.

What began with fourteen poets meeting around a virtual table on Sunday mornings has developed into a global network of writers. This anthology documents that evolution, bringing together work selected from hundreds of submissions across continents.

As the collection took shape, certain themes emerged with consistency: memory, survival, inheritance, and community. The book moves through poems that interrogate, witness, and respond to one another, forming an ongoing dialogue across distance.

The 2025 Gather Anthology offers a clear record of what becomes possible when writers meet in a shared space and commit to the work of language together.
