Favorite Poem

I don't read much poetry. (Actually, I don't read any poetry - except by force)

 But when I saw this poem in a text book, I thought it was beautiful  . . . poetic, I guess :)

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.
