Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Was there a theme or meaning you wanted us to talk about further? Let us know in the comments below! Let's talk about the poem "Dreams" by Harlem Rennaisance writer Langston Hughes today. It is a wonderful poem about the future, change, and persistence. 

Langston Hughes Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMet0ADPNZI&list=PLHg_kbfrA7YA78br-dPR_Aj0FFXVN_Ogj

"DREAMS"

Hold fast to dreams

For if dreams die

Life is a broken-winged bird

That cannot fly.

Hold fast to dreams

For when dreams go

Life is a barren field

Frozen with snow.
