Smoky, Contact me at boonejim88@yahoo.com. We should do some poetry readings together. Jim
Smoky's poems are filled to the brim with wisdom. He is a salt of the earth writer that will keep you reading and thirsting for more.
I find your poetry beautiful because of the honest heart-truth in it and how spontaneously you lay out that truth in smooth flowing words. I wish I could learn that art!
Everything I have read of Smokey's is well written and deeply inspirational- and very moving and interesting to read! ! Good work!
