Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.

Outside
The world is gloomy,
The winds of winter cold,
As down the road
A wandering poet
Must roam

[Langston Hughes @langston_poems]

I ask you this:
Which way to go?

I, too, sing America.

[Langston Hughes @langston_poems]

What can you seek now
To make your heart still sing?

[Langston Hughes @langston_poems]

Let America be the dream the dreamers dreamed—
Let it be that great strong land of love

[Langston Hughes @langston_poems]

Tomorrow
Is another
Page.

[Langston Hughes @langston_poems]

I have seen nothing but you.
Every day
Has been your face,
And every night your hand
And every road
Your voice calling me.

[Langston Hughes @langston_poems]

Well, I like to eat, sleep, drink, and be in love. I like to work, read, learn, and understand life.

[Langston Hughes @langston_poems]

So I went on back to bed -
And dreamed the sweetest dream

[Langston Hughes @langston_poems]

Shall I make a poem that will live a thousand years and paint you in the poem?
