Poems & Photographs of the San Juan Mountains
(2000,
Western Reflections Press)
Introduced by ecological jazz musician Paul
Winter and illustrated with the black-and-white photography of Eileen
Benjamin, this book is a celebration of the wisdom gained by attending
to the natural world. Chapter titles such as Vivace and Con Spirito
suggest the tempo and tone of the poems found within.
“Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer’s lyrical poetry is written
with such precision and economy of language that readers will want to
slowly absorb her every image and metaphor.
–Rocky Mountain News
“It’s a small book with a big message, a book to keep
by the reading chair so it can be picked up often. A great gift book or
quiet meditation book to keep all for yourself.”
– Bloomsbury Review
