Poems by Rosemerry:

Before We Can Unlearn
How It Is
Just Doing What We Were Made to Do
Preparing the Garden for Spring
Turns Out He Didn't Even Know the Girl
Waiting

Because Sometimes We Get that No Gets You Nowhere
Holding Hands in the Dark
Not Just During Sunsets or in Candlelight
Things I Know
To Live With
What Makes Us Human


Literally Speaking

There's what we say. Then there are the thousands of stories that swirl beneath the words. Since 1995, Rosemerry has been writing this column that takes a look at the underbelly of our language--etymologies, histories and poetics. The column is now published bi-weekly in the Telluride Daily Planet. Below are selections from Literally Speaking.



Accidental Orchardists
Sustainability: It Just Isn't Easy to Grasp
Need Some More Harmony In Your Life?
Expecting Anything? How Looking Forward Can Ruin the Moment
When It Rains


Many more in the Column Archives
