Sobre IBD

This collection of inspiring poetry includes such favorites as I THOUGHT I SAW A RAINBOW, THE LIGHT SHINING ’ROUND THE WORLD and THE WAR NOBODY FOUGHT. Besides poems inspired by Barack Obama’s victory, the collection recalls events of the past including THE TWENTIETH CENTURY, THE DAY THE TOWERS FELL and THE LAST DAY OF THE CENTURY. The collection includes rhyming poems and many free or blank verse poems and includes an historical perspective. Subjects such as television, advertising, greed, society in general and yes, love, are confronted in an entertaining manner. A conscious effort was also made to distort and, ultimately, obliterate form in some of the poems. In experimenting with the form and wordplay involved, the essentials of poetry are explored. Meant to be entertaining reading, many of these poems will stimulate you and affect your life in a positive manner. THE DAY THE DREAM CAME TRUE and OTHER POEMS is an homage to hope for anyone seeking peace in the world.
