Literary Treasure

Dreams

Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird That cannot fly.
Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field Frozen with snow.

By Langston Hughes

I really like this poem I remember reading this poem to my cousin when i found it and at that time she had just had a baby and was about to stop going to college but this poem and the fact it came from me and the love of her family she said kept her going. I think its very inspirational and up lifting. Langston was right if you give up on your dreams then what is life what will you do with your life. having a dream is something very big and important because there's no telling where you dream could take you or bring to you. being able to dream of something is one thing but to never give up and making your dream come true is way far more greater then giving up and having to look back and say man......i wish i would have done that.
