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. "
Langston Hughes is quickly becoming my favorite poet that I have researched throughout this blog process because he makes substantial points throughout his writings but is still modern enough for me to completely understand. He obviously uses metaphors and different figures of speech, but he does it in a way that is completely understandable yet still sounds very poetic and gets his point across.
