Os Rhysling Awards (Prêmios Rhysling) são um prémio norte-americano anual concedido para os melhores poemas nos gêneros ficção científica , fantasia ou terror do ano precedente.
Ao contrário de outros prêmios literários, os quais homenageiam autores do gênero, o Prémio Rhysling são assim chamados devido a um personagem de uma história de ficção científica: o poeta cego Rhysling, do conto de Robert A. Heinlein As Verdes Colinas da Terra .
O prêmio é concedido em duas categorias: "Melhor Poema Longo", para trabalhos de 50 ou mais linhas, e "Melhor Poema Curto", para trabalhos de 49 ou menos linhas.
Os indicados de cada ano são escolhidos pelos membros da Science Fiction Poetry Association . Cada membro pode indicar um trabalho para cada uma das categorias. Os trabalhos indicados são então reunidos em uma antologia chamada The Rhysling Anthology , e membros da Associação então votam nos vencedores.
