Dreams

"Because dreams are not to be shattered!"  (by Poet)    


                       If my life is like a river, not all pebbles are shiny, 

                      If my life is like a flower, not all petals are smooth. 

                               There are pebbles, there are petals, 

                                     Covered with dreams, 

                                 So soft, almost like an angel

                                         Touching them, 

                                           Caring them.

                                Let them be where they are -

                                            Unharmed, 

                          Because dreams are not to be shattered!
