Poem: Dreams

The great APJ Abdul Kalam once declared, “Dreams are not those that we see in sleep, but they are those that do not let us sleep.”

So, what is this dream about?


Is it just about getting super rich,  I don’t think so,
It is more about opportunity, a chance to grow.
To be able to pursue passions, to break through,
To be recognized by the world, for the good we do.


To contribute to the world, making it new,
To Inspire others, to dare and pursue.
To leave a legacy, an imprint on the world,
To be a story, that may forever be told.


It’s about living a present, with pride and glory,
Ensuring ancestors smile, their name alive in our story.
Blessing new generations with our resolve  and deeds,
Our footsteps, may become a guide in their needs.


It’s true. “Dreams are not those that we see in sleep, but they are those that do not let us sleep,”
But, going after it grants us our own peace.
