Sans Dreams We Do Not Live

If the dream dies,
            life is a horse
            cripple who no longer
            will run anymore ...

             if the dreams are gone,
             life will be a river
             dry and ephemeral
             without solution ever ...!



  Ps. Reading Langston Hughes

"If dreams Die" grabbed my attention because I see value in dreams beyond our understanding. For that reason, I'm grateful I've learned to tread softly in my every moment, day, of spiritual growth. A brief eye opening poem.
