Moods of Life

This book of poetry came as a result of keeping a journal while growing up in the Bronx, New York. I kept a journal since middle school and decided to use my writing to create poetry book. The poems reflect life growing up in an urban city surrounded by family and friends. Some poems will make you laugh, cry, and think. You will love your own family and friends even more. I hope you will be inspired to write down your feelings daily. Keep a journal so that when you reflect on your life, you will understand why and how you survived a particular event. As we grow older, we forget. Sometimes reading your journal will inspire you to recapture your feelings. I suggest writing a poem to share with others. So many people have the same feelings and are unable to talk about these feelings. Poetry is one avenue to use to express yourself.
