HomeWords

Coming Home to Poetry was Wyatt's statewide conversation about poetry as Poet Laureate. She also edited "HomeWords," a weekly poetry column featuring works of Kansas poets that ran in newspapers throughout the state through 2014 and into 2015. 

"Poetry is a place we can return to in all kinds of weather, with its innate power to heal and comfort, transform and inspire. Its porch light is always on."
