Sobre IBD

Rod Grant uses the magic of words to capture images, ideas and emotions drawn from his long and varied experience. His lyrical poems deal with love, destiny, despair and hope -- the full range of the human condition. The poems are brief and to the point, and were written to be reread and remembered.
