Theme Description: The Golden Rod by Maggie Smith contains a collection of poems that explore “parenthood, solitude, love, and memory”. Because of its ability to survive in diverse, harsh environments, the golden rod itself represents good luck and a pioneering spirit. Our theme, The Golden Ro(a)d takes a spin on this book by exploring different stages of life through the imagery of seasons. We hope that the designs will exemplify the ideas of personal progress, growth, and moments of solitude, joy, and clarity along with life’s turbulences.
