From Italian immigrant communities of the past to teaching the contemporary immigrants in one of the present day's most diverse regions, Rose Grimaldi approaches many topics with honest, imagination, and the rhythmical gift of a poet. Diverse poetic forms such as tribute, portrait, free verse, and haiku capture a wide range of topics in the author's life such as childhood, schooltime, sports, church, family, dancing and opening a dance studio, university, and the path to becoming a professor.
