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.
