The
Infinite Rose
By Harold Feinstein
Feinstein
begins his book with a simple stated, beautiful written poem, The
Infinite Rose. The poem invites you to “enter into the
heart of hearts” to gaze at colorful blooms and buds, to stay
awhile and enjoy their beauty. Expect to wander through the photographs
of various roses time and time again. The beauty and color of Feinstein’s
choices look magnificent on the black backdrop. There is the gracefulness
of a John F. Kennedy bud, the lusciousness of a Broadway bloom,
the fabulous folds of a Masquerade. The Ice Berg bloom is one of
my favorites.
God
must have created the rose to express love, because this emotion
comes to mind when a rose is seen, sniffed or touched. Whether it’s
for yourself, your parents, your friends or your sweetheart, The
Infinite Rose is a book to given and kept.
