Description
“These poems are crisp, lucid, exact. They keep one hand always in contact with the earth, the other on the skin….I am moved by all of them: the regard for work, for tools, for the turns of phrase, for the legacy of saying and skills.” Scott Russell Sanders “Smith finds a nourishing grace in simple familiar things. His deep intuitive poems–devotions really–shimmer with an openness to the natural world, a quality shared with poets Kenneth Rexroth, Lucien Stryk, and Oriental Zen masters.” George Myers Jr.
