Dreams are our biggest wings

Of dreams and the desire of man

Dreams are within us,
our wings to fly
towards heaven's gate
our strength to carry on,
through hope of a thousand nights
and so, tell a big tale

Dreams are our friends,
the mountains, clouds and valleys
Our only zeal to live on
Our depth of impulse,
Our natural endowment;
Dreams are our wings to sail on.

Dreams are life! Making Dreams come true is living life! This poem beautifully shows that everyone person has a dream and also the capability to achieve it. It all depends on your choice, you believe in you, you live, you don't, your dead!

The poem is great and I liked the way it expresses the depth in simple lines!

I like the two levels in the poem- in the first stanza 'heaven's gate', 'big tale' seems to convey the ethereal, supra-real and fairy-tale aspects of dream

In the second stanza, 'mountains.. etc' and 'natural endowment' grounds dream as part of the earthly make-up [the brain in the body]

just a little question - should it be night or nights?

[Ovi-Odiete]

Oh, thank you so much....

It's "Nights" ....

Thank you for the notification, I'll edit it soon...

I loved the simplicity with which the ideas were conveyed.. "Our natural endowment" - Thats so true - and we should hold on to them..

[Ovi-Odiete]

Yea....
Very True....
Thank You Dearly ....

The dream is one of the few things in which every human can relate. It's the embodiment of the combination of the mind and our own imagination. Dreams are very powerful but some times they can be very unpleasant but in the end, it keeps us going.

Good job :D

they are our biggest wings, and yet, unfortunately we often don't spread them and even attempt to fly to new heights...we just stay content to walk the old ground.

[Ovi-Odiete]

Yes, they are. Often times we are buried in the grave of dreams.
We bury them and never utilize them....

This was very good. It reminded me of a songline tale.

Thank you very much Fabian!!!!
