Follow Your Dreams (Poem)
Posted: Wednesday, July 13, 2011
by David Tanguay
As we question our existence - here on earth
We are reluctant - to hear reasons for our birth
Told to give praise - to our parents - for our life
Conceived from them - as they became man and wife
We are nurtured with a belief - in a God up above
For we are told from him - came everlasting love
Why do we question - life as we know it?
With all of life’s faults,- we simply want to quit
We were never promised - a life without its faults
For we are met daily - with various assaults
Dream on dream on - life is made of dreams
To follow your heart is the way - it seems
Never give in - to life’s treacherous ways
For there is an answer - as we live through the days
Our fathers laid down - a foundation for us to live by
The constitution was granted to us - we must not defy
God bless America - the land of the free
Free to live our lives - from sea to shining sea
