Rosemary Wahtola Trommer – Meeting Grief with More Love, More Love

Aired Monday, September 26, 2022 at 11:00 AM PST / 2:00 PM EST / 7:00 PM GMT / 8:00 PM CET

Where to go when our heart is raw and our limbs are tired? When our bones and brittle and the landscapes barren, are there fat raindrops that wash away the pain? Can the scratch of our pen against plain white paper bring us hope when conversations seem senseless? Join Kara Johnstad and acclaimed Poet Rosemerry Trommer Wahtola in a heartfelt conversation on meeting grief, the power of daily practice, and her upcoming collection of poems, All the Honey. How can poetry save us? How may a word whispered help shake loose stones lodged in our hearts?



Rosemerry invites us to surrender to the path of love. She co-hosts Emerging Form podcast on creative process, Secret Agents of Change (a surreptitious kindness cabal), and Soul Writers Circle. Her poetry has appeared on A Prairie Home Companion, PBS News Hour, O Magazine, Rattle.com, American Life in Poetry, Carnegie Hall stage, and her daily poetry blog, A Hundred Falling Veils. Her most recent collection, Hush, won the Halcyon Prize. Naked for Tea was a finalist for the Able Muse Book Award, and her poems are included in the acclaimed anthologies Poetry of Presence, How to Love the World, and The Path to Kindness. In April 2023, Samara Press will publish a new collection, All the Honey.
