Previously posted on the blog, but I think it’s the same group of women. From my grandmother’s album. “Doris February 1916” ?

Diane Kerr Poet, Author of PERIGEE
I received a copy of PERIGEE in the mail today. A gift from the poet Diane Kerr.
I had the honor of capturing her author photo which now graces the back cover of her just published poetry book.
Thank you Diane and congratulations on winning the Brittingham Prize in Poetry and having your book published at the University of Wisconsin Press.

“Diane Kerr mentors poets through the Madwomen in the Attic Creative Writing Program at Carlow University and is the author of the collection, Butterfly. Her work has appeared in the Alaska Quarterly Review, Mississippi Review, and Pearl, among others. She holds an MFA from the Program for Writers at Warren Wilson College. Kerr’s forthcoming Perigee follows a speaker’s emotional reckoning with a traumatic secret she felt pressured to keep during her girlhood. In varied lyric narratives, these poems reinforce that shock and suffering have no statute of limitations.”

The Last Tomatoes
Combined my few tomatoes, the ones my neighbor brought over and some brown cherry tomatoes from the store- olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper and a pinch of Italian Seasoning.
Once the sauce cooked down a bit, I tossed in some drained penne and added freshly grated Parmesan. Salad on the side. Delicious supper
It was the combination of colors that invited me to capture this photo.
