Just like the lyrics to a song or a poem. Both describe feelings and emotions that you go through in life. Twenty poems make up my book titled Poetic Thoughts. Some of my thoughts run deep. No doubt some of my poetry will stir up the emotions in one's heart, mind and the spirit. I was moved emotionally myself when writing some of the poetry. Some poems are simple yet very meaningful. When my grandmother read some of the poems. She said certain poems made her eyes tear up because of things that she has experienced in life. I was touched by this. Although, I am very young. I do realize that tears are a part of life. But don't forget to laugh.About the Author: Author Leelan R. Prince Jackson Jr. I am in the 8th grade this school year. Writing and reading are two of my biggest hobbies. While in fourth grade I received Student of the Year Award in ELA (English Language Arts). In the sixth grade I mastered my reading STAAR Test (State of Texas Assessment of Academic Readiness). My test score qualified me to take the ACT (American Standardized Test).
