Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer

4.9/5 (18167 ratings)

Description:In The Unfolding, Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer startles us with the wonder, beauty, and sacred connection that blossom out of living wholeheartedly. Here the aching heart goes dancing. Written after the deaths of her son and father, these poems embody paradox—simultaneously somber and playful, brokenhearted and uplifting, even solemn and sexy. Trommer wades heart-deep in the broken world and finds in the rubble these honest, surprising invitations to praise.Praise for The Unfolding“I didn’t realize how much I needed Rosemerry’s words to remind me of what most matters. This beautiful collection of poems reveals the power of saying Yes to life, the blessings of loving without holding back. Each offering is a powerful transmission: our spirit is invited forward to cherish—praise!—both the darkness and luminosity of existence. Especially in these shadowy times, The Unfolding is pure medicine for our tender, awakening hearts.”—Tara Brach, mindfulness teacher and author of Radical Compassion“More than anyone I have ever encountered, poet Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer meets each moment with unbridled curiosity and then, after paying close attention to all its contours, takes that moment into her arms and praises it. She praises quietly or full-throated, with equal measures of humility and authority, down to the darkest bones and out to the luminous edges of the known universe. This collection reconfigured me.”—Mirabai Starr, author of Wild Mercy and Ordinary Mysticism“Like so many, I turn regularly to the work of Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer when I need to believe again that the world is still a kind and welcoming place, alive with compassion and full of singing even in the darkest of times. From the very first poem of hers that I read, I was led more deeply into myself, suddenly feeling that so much was possible, the field wide-open once more. In this latest collection, The Unfolding, her words become ‘searchlights / that will help us find / what we don’t yet know / we are looking for,’ teaching us how to hold sorrow and beauty, grace and grief at the same time. Rosemerry Trommer is a fearless poet of the heart, and she possesses the exceedingly rare ability to turn even the simplest of moments into sacred lessons we can carry into our days, helping us to recognize—even when we’d rather turn away—the holiness that keeps unfolding at the center of our own very human lives.—James Crews, author of Unlocking the Heart: Writing for Mindfulness, Courage & Self-Compassion and editor of How to Love the World: Poems of Gratitude & Hope “I don’t know how she does it. In The Unfolding, Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer opens her arms and heart and voice so wide, everything we experience comes inside to be held, to shine. The greatest grief, our unexpected nudges of memory, the way the world goes on despite everything—she finds a way to weave continuance, embodiment of love, which may change shape, but never disappears. ‘After I did not die the first minute, / I lived the next minute. / More truly, life lived me.’ These powerful poems are anthems of clarity and ultimate care.”—Naomi Shihab Nye, Paterson Poetry Prize recipient and author of Everything Comes NextWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
