Poetry with Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer
May 1 thru July 31, 2023

In May, I was honored to be one of six artists asked to create an ekphrastic piece of art inspired by the poetry of
award-winning poet, Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer. The artwork was shown on screen during
Rosemerry's performance on Friday, May 12th, and is currently on display and available for purchase at
Loveland's Black & Blues Music & Brews through the end of July, 2023.
Below, I've included the poem which inspired me, "In the Garden, Again", and my painting by the same name,
as well as a photo from the May 12th Poetry performance at Loveland's Rialto Theatre.

IN THE GARDEN, AGAIN
After breaking, after kneeling,
after raising my ripe fist,
after opening my palm, after
clenching it again, after running,
after hiding, after taking off
my masks, after stilling,
after shouting, after bargaining
with God, after crumpling
and cursing, after losing,
after song, after seeking,
after breath, after breath,
after breath,
I stand in the sunfowers
of early September
and watch as the bees weave
from one giant bloom to another,
and I, too, am sunflower,
tall-stemmed and face lifted,
shaped by the love of light
and the need for rain.
I stand here until some part of me
is again more woman than sunflower,
and she notices how.
for a few moments,
it was enough just to be alive.
Just to be alive, it was enough.
