  • Hold fast to dreams
    • Davian Smith
       
      Although this poem is short its first line hits me right in the chest; Hold fast to dreams. Too often people tell you what they want you to become or what you should be doing but having your own dream to pushing to achieve it against the odds takes courage and persistence!
  • For when dreams go Life is a barren field Frozen with snow.
    • Davian Smith
       
      I cannot imagine my life without my personal dreams attached. At times I feel as if my dreams change and certain things don't matter as much, but I possess them still non the less. My life with dreams equal emptiness and confusion...
  •  
    One of my favorite poems by Langston Hughes!

  • He gives his harness bells a shake To ask if there is some mistake.

      The world around him does not stop even though he has.
  • The woods are lovely, dark, and deep. But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep,
    • Alex Papson
       
      stops for a peaceful and serene moment but life beckons and the moment can only last so long.
    • Heather B
       
      These last four lines are my favorite poetry ever. Every time I read this stanza, I feel the emotion as fresh as I did the first time. The fanciful longing to linger over something as simple and beautiful as snow falling on woods is so evocative, and yet "the real world" interrupts every time. It's such a melancholy sentiment, and yet one that is so frequent.
  • He will not see me stopping here To watch his woods fill up with snow.
    • Alex Papson
       
      Slows down from life to enjoy the world around him.

  • I am the darker brother. They send me to eat in the kitchen When company comes, But I laugh, And eat well, And grow strong
    • Anne Elise Smith
       
      I think that Langston Hughes was relecting on the plight of African Americans in this poem .
  • I am the darker brother. They send me to eat in the kitchen When company comes , But I laugh, And eat well, And grow strong
    • Anne Elise Smith
       
      Hughes describes the hardships of African Americans but at the same time expresses the strength that they have as they laugh, eat and grow strong. The future is reflected with words such as "Tommorow" and "Then."
    • Nanette Wingrove
       
      I always picture Walt Whitman reading his poem, then Langston Hughes reading his answer, and the Sojourner Truth rising to read, "Ain't I a Woman?" Kind of a readers' theater setting. :)

      Children grow up way to fast, and before you know it they are making their won way in the world.
  • In her room at the prow of the house Where light breaks, and the windows are tossed with linden, My daughter is writing a story.
  • Young as she is, the stuff Of her life is a great cargo, and some of it heavy: I wish her a lucky passage.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • I remember the dazed starling Which was trapped in that very room, two years ago; How we stole in, lifted a sash
  • And wait then, humped and bloody, For the wits to try it again; and how our spirits Rose when, suddenly sure, It lifted off from a chair-back, Beating a smooth course for the right window And clearing the sill of the world. It is always a matter, my darling, Of life or death, as I had forgotten. I wish What I wished you before, but harder.
  •  
    Powerful poem of a daughter growing and leaving home.

  • No more to build on there. And they, since they Were not the one dead, turned to their affairs.
    • Anna Sayers
       
      The last line always confused me because I always thought it contradicted the, "Call it a day, I wish they might have said" line that occurs earlier in the poem, yet when I look at it now, I realize that he's referring to the workingmen continuing going about their day. This last line illustrates the "show must go on" attitude of business.

      This is a great source for teaching poetry to children that have a hard time grasping the concept of poetry at first glance. Personalizing it- making connections verbally as well as through illustrations makes all the difference.

    I ran into this adjusted Kipling poem on the site for a local football team. I thought that the use of the old poem for new meaning was a fantastic idea. I've been wanting to save it.
