I desire to teach children how to love our planet and take care of it. Moreover, I want to show them that their everyday choices matter. They have the power to change the future and the planet belongs to them.

In this exquisite collection, the poet allows us into his realm where words dance and emotions soar, sometimes so raw they compel you to read them twice. "The Truest Thing I Know" is a captivating collection of poetry that invites readers on a transformative journey through the depths of human experience, tragic, romantic, full of loss and yearning and notions that all who are part of the human experience will relate to completely. Marshall T Smith is clearly a master at drawing from words the immutable, the unsayable, the words that live only as often untouchable, deep feelings in the soul of every human.
