I chose "The Whitesmith" because it is one of my favorite poems that I have written.
The Whitesmith
I am the whitesmith,
I work all day,
smelting,
burning,
hammering away.
It's hard work, I do agree.
I burned my hand,
as you can see.
One false move around the pit,
but I tell customers,
to steer clear of it.
I am the whitesmith,
I work all day.
I may work all night,
but I get good pay.
I work with a partner of very unique type.
My work-wear is white with brown stripes.
I am the whitesmith,
and I love my job.

Hi Asa,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed hearing you recite this poem on the day I visited your shop in Cobbletown. You found an interesting way to share the experience of a whitesmith!
