About the Book

Note to the Reader This is just a quick note to the reader. Obviously if you bought my book then you enjoy poetry. When I began writing poetry I was a 13 year old eighth grader. I had never ever attempted writing a poem before that. I guess the way that I started with poetry was bottling everything inside me that I had to let it out somehow. So I ended up writing about it. I didn’t notice that it had taken the form of a poem until halfway through it. To me it sounded so much like a poem. I showed it to my friend and she asked me when I took poetry lessons. Funny thing is that I never took poetry lessons. It just came out of me. I got encouraged so I began to write down everything that came to my mind. Unfortunately I was young, so most of my poems were about love and pain. I knew I could use my poem skills to write inspirational and better poems than just love, but I never took that into consideration. It was only until this year that I started to wise up. I began writing about inspirational topics. I got so happy when I wrote my first uplifting poem. It was like lifting a burden off my shoulders. Everything that is written in this book is meant with all good means. Some people say it’s a talent, some people say that it’s a gift. Well whatever it is, I want to share it with you. I’m a 14 year old tenth grader (sophomore) now and I know I’m young. I’m sure you’ll like my poetry, and if you don’t just keep in mind that I’m still very young. I respect your opinion. I’m still trying to get better. I’m not perfect. I really hope you enjoy the book!
