About
This work sets a poem by New Zealand poet Ruth Gilbert. The poem is in two verses, the first having a questioning and searching tone, while the second presents the resolution. Love is at the centre of the text: for it is love that is the 'rose that will not die' and the 'house not made with hands'.
