Dreams - Poem by Langston Hughes

I don't find much poetic substance here. Sure, life without dreams is barely worth living to be likened with a lame bird or a barren field. But these are rather cheap images - frankly the metaphors of a Sylvia Plath or her husband, that other Hughes, are much more interesting. (Report) Reply

For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.
Great poem. (Report) Reply

For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow.

In Brahmasutra it is written suchakacha hi sutre, aachakacha hi tat hita. What ever is hinted in dream is for your welfare..In addition to that dream, naturally occurring in sleep, one can plan a dream, poet says and hold
on to achieve that. (Report) Reply

Fourth line is superfluous, only making up the rhyme. Not that deep, as it happens, Try john Keats instead. (Report) Reply
