MARCH BLOG POST, DUE MARCH 31ST

Many poems, songs and books are written about what we dream of doing, of being, of our future. Dreams are what keep us going every day.

Check out part of the poem Dream Variations by Langston Hughes:

To fling my arms wide
In some place of the sun,
To whirl and to dance
Till the white day is done.
Then rest at cool evening
Beneath a tall tree
While night comes on gently,
    Dark like me—
That is my dream!

or lyrics from the musical Les Miserables...

I dreamed a dream in times gone by
When hope was high and life worth living
I dreamed, that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung, no wine untasted

As you can see, humans dream of the future and of better things to come.
