Publisher Notes

In The Poetry of Roses, Carolyn Parker celebrates the rose, pairing her exquisite full-color photographs or blooms from her own garden with the evocative poems she has chosen to accompany them. Here are roses in the garden, roses in formal arrangements, roses heaped in baskets, along with tributes to the flower from such diverse writers as Sappho, the haiku master Basho, Emily Dickenson, John Milton, Walt Whitman, e.e. cummings, T.S. Eliot, and Jorge Luis Borges, among others.
