Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer is what Rumi called “a true human being” — a person in whose presence pain becomes medicine that awakens us to the effervescence of each moment. And, like Rumi and others in the lineage of embodied mystics, she is firmly rooted in the grief, grit and glory of the everyday. Her poems are a communion beyond words and thoughts. They are a touch from one fallible human to another, in the glow of which we find ourselves less alone, more embodied, and exquisitely “attentive / to the syllables of grief, of love” within and around us. —Kim Rosen, author of Saved by a Poem: The Transformative Power of Words
