"The Tin-Smith" (Williamsburg Series)

“The Tin-Smith”

Tinsmithing is lifelong trade
sometimes called a tinker
fixing and repairing things
in early colonies since 1720
making and creating crafts
living in the settlements
those lucky enough to settle
most on the trails and hills
carrying millwork – news
upon the Warriors path
from New England north
to the Blue Ridge south
the tin-smith selling goods
repairing that needs fixing
sometimes the tinker
but always the tin-smith!
