Description
River Ghosts is about love, loss, the natural world, and the passage of time. It explores family and memory, the ghosts that dance through our minds, and the ghosts that whisper from cobblestones, rivers, and houses. It is a book birthed in the grief for a parent and the world during COVID-19. Nevertheless, it also celebrates joy and laughter, and recognizes that though nature’s beauty is transitory, it recurs again and again. Spring follows winter, and new flowers bloom. We see the light of long-dead stars, even as new stars are born.

River Ghosts by Merril D Smith 5/5
A sumptuous bouquet of expertly crafted poems. From real and imagined memories, to the outer reaches of star strewn space, there is something for everyone here. Each poem is carefully considered and works with the rest to create a cohesive whole that makes for a satisfying read. The subject of each poem is easily accessible and if you want to, you can read many meanings into the layers in each piece. Definitely a re-reader!
