Dreams

by Langston Hughes (1902 - 1967)

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.

Paraphrase:

Don't give up on your dreams because if you do, your life will be damaged and not reach its potential.

Don't give up on your dreams because when they are gone, life is empty and cold.

Summary:

Having dreams and working to reach them is an important part of a pleasant, successful life.
