Quote #10
I read her this poem I wrote called "Dream" about doing hip-hop with my own band, and she started crying. My moms don't cry easy, so I felt bad. But she said they were happy tears. "You keep writing, baby," she said. "You're doing good." (74.3)
Tyrone's mom is super proud of his writing, and she's also proud that reading all about poetry and creating his own poems has led him to start dreaming. This is just one step in the journey to an amazing life ahead. Yay, poetry.
