I loved the simple, accessible prose in Dungy's Smith Blue. I found myself slowly reading each piece so I could savor the words. I connected with those poems that spoke to solitude, I particularly liked "On the Rocks" and "Five for Truth."

I had the pleasure of hearing Camille Dungy speak to a graduate class in Early Childhood Education I'm attending. We are working on poetry and more specifically nature poetry. I could hear Camille's voice as I was reading Smith Blue and I also thought back to some of the stories she told us during class. I love reading these poems over and over again and I'm glad there's more of her work out there for me to read.

Not the biggest fan of this volume. Would've scored it lower if I didn't see her poetry reading. The poems came off a lot better when spoken, but otherwise it is a pretty difficult poetry volume (Not that I mind difficult, I just wasn't a fan of how it was written overall).

Really good collection of poetry. I love the looks at nature and loss and reinvention.
