Let Them Dream Poem by Ndeipanda Aindongo

Life is a Humanitarian Journey
not give, is to not live.
Tempestuous as it may be,
there lie ahead yet bigger storms to see.
storms that will attempt to knock out your teeth,
as well as knock you off you feet.
it then follows that one must be ready to land,
on one's knees.
Our intermingled futures are vessels headed out
to sea,
none have ever gone devoid of crewmen throughout
the annals of history.

So be the first mate to someones dream,
Help develop it like negative film
Hold the reigns throughout the storm
Be the mason who lays the cornerstone
Be the well from which inspiration is drawn
let it be your hand,
From which the seed to a dream is sown.
