Dreams

A dream without an action
Is like a mission without a vision
Or an emotion without a notion
A true commotion set in motion

All will be in deep sorrow
If we slumber today to dream of tomorrow
Hunger, famine and thirst will follow
If with our strength in dreams we choose to wallow

But all who dream should stand and work
Pledge their strength and give their word
For Jack will be dull if he plays with work
And all will be slain if we sheathe our sword.
