“DREAMS AND HOPES”
We all were once a curious child
With dreams and hopes sometimes wild
Some had many, some had small
Somehow, somewhere we made it all.
Some had dreamed to serve the youth
To teach them knowledge and the truth
Some were hopeful to survive
In this world that’s full of drives
Some had dreamed to kneel and pray
To guide the ones that may go astray
Some had loitered to wait and see
How the world can really be.
Some had dreamed to serve the people
To cure the sick, the lame and the cripple
Some had found the world to be
Some place to sleep but nothing to see.
Whichever way we want to go
Our very own fate will lead us so
Don’t be discouraged if you fail
Life’s a struggle, you must prevail.
