This is harder than it seems. I can only come up with four poets in the "American Poet Series" in chronological order, as follows:
American Poet Series:
1st 1970 - Edgar Lee Masters
2nd 1971 – Emily Dickinson
3rd 1972 - Sidney Lanier
4th 1974 - Robert Frost
Note that you'd have to delete the following:
Robinson Jeffers. That stamp was part of the "American Arts Series".
Edna St. Vincent Millay. That stamp was part of the "Literary Arts Series"
There were countless other poets commemorated on stamps from the 1940s through the present day, some of which were included in the Literary Arts Series, which is outlined in this link:

One final note: Although the Paul Laurence Dunbar stamp is certainly that of a poet, I cannot find any reference to the USPS considering it part of the "American Poet Series".
