One of my favorite poems that is really inspiring!
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.
-Langston Hughes

These Hard Times
These Hard TimesThis overcastting shadow,
Slowly drifts away.
The sun arising more and more,
Each and every day.
Even through these hard times,
And even through these bad,
It’s so easy to be happy,
Yet too easy to be sad.
Sometimes I want to be alone,
Curled in my little corner,
And others all I need and wish to have,
Is to be together.
As my mind is bottled,
And my soul in shock,
The love of all my family and friends,
Lifts me up to walk.
After all this grief has passed,
I know I’ll be alright,
Because even through these hard times,
My sunshine still shines bright.
-Ted Wolf
The Choice
Above the noise,A single voice,
Calls out of the crowd,
We all have the choice.
The choice to be free.
The choice to dream big.
The choice to make your life grow,
Starting from just a sprig.
The strength to be you.
The strength to express.
The strength to say no,
And the strength to say yes.
Everyone has the choice,
To direct their own lives.
Everyone has the strength,
To be themselves.
Through thick and thin,
Through leaps and dives.
-Ted Wolf
Dreams
Think to yourself,What will I become?
If you have a dream,
You’ll have a thousand wonders and some.
Dreams complete life,
Dreams bring forth greatness,
Dreams fufill goals,
And bring out elateness,
Life is nothing without a dream,
but a willow sad at a stream.
Life is dark without a dream,
Without any light, not even a beam.
Think to yourself,
I have a dream,
And the day will come,
When your name shall gleam.
-Ted Wolf
“ And in the end, it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years.
Abraham Lincoln
Worthwhile
WorthwhileSearching through the darkness,
For a glimpse of light,
Searching for something just out of sight.
It may take a lifetime,
It may take a day,
However long it takes,
We find something to say.
We develop dreams,
We set our goal.
We strive to reach it,
To find our inner soul.
Reaching our peak,
We sit back and smile.
Everyone has his chance,
To make their life Worthwhile.
-Ted Wolf
The Creation
The CreationI stare out the window,
Staring out into space,
Wondering what had happened,
To make this such a wondrous place.
As the world was created,
It brought forth many things,
The stars with their beaming light,
The bees with their stings.
It created man, with all of our dreams,
That we wish to seek so that we can too gleam,
It gave us our sight, our smell, and our taste,
It gave us hearing, without any haste,
Our senses soon came, one after another,
Then we could tell one from the other.
It created nature, It created darkness,
It created peace, and then brought us brightness.
It created thought, and when all was lost,
It created warmth to rid of the frost.
It brought us emotions, so we could express ourselves,
Happiness, Sadness, and all of the rest,
And after all, they made us our best.
And when the world was finished, It watched over its work,
Accomplished and great, he stood atop a little house,
And stared happily and the newly-wedded groom and spouse.
-Ted Wolf
For the rest of my Life
For the Rest of My LifeLiving in my little town,
the pressuring suspense shall never drown.
What will happen as I live on?
Will I rise up or will I fall down?
There are choices to make,
Many small, many hard,
If I make the right choices,
Bring forth inner voices.
Ill create the change,
Of how my life will arrange.
If these choices come later or soon,
Breaking free from this enclosing cocoon.
I will express myself in many ways,
Soar with the eagles, Fly with the jays.
Ill live life with a basket of smiles,
Alongside friends, family, wife and child,
Rising up beyond amibition,
Rising up beyond frustration.
I’ll live happily for the rest of my life,
Happily for the rest of my life.
Ted Wolf
This poem was inspired by life and the choices that come with it.
I hope you enjoyed it!
The Sight of the Trees
The Sight of the TreeI trudged through the woods with them hanging around,
Standing still in the wind, spellbound,
Their magnificent limbs, covered with green,
Standing stiff, wishing to be seen.
As I look at them,
smiling with glee,
I know there is no better sight,
Then the Sight of a Tree.
-Ted Wolf February 13, 2008
This poem was inspired by sitting on the couch on a snow day and staring at the trees. I hope you all enjoyed it, and there will be more.
