The Collection of Dreams

A poem about intelligent pursuit of dreams, without "geeking" it - over-analyzing.

The goal of succeeding and making smart bets
With smiles that hasten our phony regrets,
Can have us disarmed with much sustained reaming -
So let’s forego inappropriate beaming...

Seek quality work by challenging ceilings;
Be socially outgoing, without damaged feelings...
It’s all in your mind, as you pass through the scan;
Think “progress”, through some organized plan.

Moderate thinking and aiming too high
While stars you are reaching for fall from the sky,
Will lessen your care for dreams that you’ll nab,
So use your desire while hauling that “grab”!
