Ancestral

Poetry grounded in the rural Midwest, Daniel Smith’s ANCESTRAL explores a family’s deep attachment to the land, the physical work of farming and the emotional disruption one endures when such a life is no longer sustainable.

Poems from the
Winter House

Smith’s poetry grows from a rural heritage where words come “low across the prairie/like rocks/rolled over virgin ground.” Quietly reflective, filled with love for a spouse, a farm, and a way of life, Poems from the Winter House celebrates the poet’s acceptance of a new landscape, both internally and externally.
