A Passion To Dream Poem by Amy J Richardson

In life I’ll succeed, with vigorous passion,
My mind is far from serene.
I’ll fight to fulfil my destiny’s wish,
For I have a passion to dream.

My fantasies are, of dream upon wish,
But they cause me nothing but strife.
I grieve that they lie just out of my reach,
So I passionately bring them to life.

All of my dreams combine to form one,
And I’ve sentenced myself to this deed,
‘The world must know of my soul reputation –
In life, I always succeed.’

I’ll persevere until I have what I dream I will have,
My mind is far from serene.
I refuse to accept no less than my best,
And I have a passion to dream.
