Overview

""Abraham Smith is one of my favorite living poets keeping the art form alive. He stokes the fires of imagination and his persistence keeps the cinders of inspiration smoldering. It is a joy to read his work and a thrill to hear him read it in person."" - Margo Price ""The mists that hover over a meadow first thing in the morning do not disappear; rather they sublime into the day or, as Thoreau once put it, they ""conform to the fashions of eternity."" In One Warm Morning, Abraham Smith likewise hovers gently over his words as they sublime, effortlessly it seems, into an eternity of free access and inviolable intimacy. Along the way, the music they make is the most companionable that I know."" - Donald Revell ""Abraham Smith takes a long walk on a warm morning and we are lucky to be invited along as he shows us the mind is not a fact but a motion. And a music! of ""hummingbirds / historical jazzes / corks in rapids,"" and a holy lot more. Smith caroms from one association to the next -a deerfly bite, a bad tattoo, ""a cold bleacher / at the last homegame of the year"" - as if there were no bounds to consciousness, as if ""we must have what's next"" and ""go on go on go on go on,"" as if the joy's all in the movement. It is! You'll wish it wouldn't end."" - Joel Brouwer
