Rose Always - A Love Story (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781945938481)

This book of love poetry is a tapestry made with threads of impressions, memories, emotions, images, visions, and dreams. This third, illustrated version of a timeless love story is rich in poems (181), photos of roses (96), and expressions of love and compassion. It draws from international traditions of love poetry, ranging from the The Songs of Songs, through Buddhist and Hindu stories, and words of Antoine de Saint Exupéry's Little Prince, Emily Dickinson, Sappho, Rumi, T.S. Eliot, e.e. cummings, Rainer Maria Rilke, and Czeslaw Milosz. Dante's Il Paradiso was a great inspiration and so was Goethe and a number of jazz standards, and folk ballads.
