If Roses Were the Only Flower: Eleven Verses on Diversity

By: Alan Goldsmith

This charming collection of poetry, both reverent and humorous, takes an idiosyncratic approach to diversity, and is illustrated with arresting photographs by the author, an accomplished professional photographer. Its inspiration was the doctrine of signatures, an ancient belief system that saw evidence of a plant’s healing properties in its physical characteristics. With that as a starting point, the 11 poems and 43 images offer a whimsical antidote to the persistent racism that threatens our nation’s health and unity.
