Keep Your Dreams

 

Keep your dreams - they're richer far

Than the facts discovered are.

 

Do not seek all things to touch;

Do not want to know too much.

 

Growing old, still play the child;

Keep some glory undefiled.

 

What if clouds are mist and air?

Still see ships sailing there.

 

What would life be if we knew

Only those things which are true?

 

If the things of bad and good

Were by all men understood.

 

Nature's hills and brooks and springs

Would be catalogued as things.

 

Keep your dreams, for in them lies

Joy denied to men grown wise.

 

Still build castles in the air!

Still see white ships sailing there!

 

Still have something to pursue,

Something which you wish you knew.
