AS I GREW OLDER”

By:”Langston Hughes”

3

It was a long time ago.
I have almost forgotten my dream.
But it was there then,
In front of me,
Bright like a sun—
My dream.

And then the wall rose,
Rose slowly,
Slowly,
Between me and my dream.

rose slowly,slowly

dimming,

hiding,

the light of my dream.

 

Rose until it touched the sky—
The wall.
Shadow.
I am black.

I lie down in the shadow.
No longer the light of my dream before me,
Above me.
Only the thick wall.
Only the shadow.

My hands!
My dark hands!
Break through the wall!
Find my dream!
Help me to shatter this darkness,
To smash this night,
To break this shadow
Into a thousand lights of sun,
Into a thousand whirling dreams
Of sun!

dear: langston hughes

i have seen your poem as i grew older i think that from this poem you describe

the life of the black people and how the rasicm blocked on you the opportunity

to achieve your dreams but you sent a message to the people that the impossible

is possible i liked your poem cause it has a demands can change every thing.

from your poem i can learn to reach my aim and to distroy the difficulties.

MY DREAM

All of as has an aim that always think how he can achieve it in one day.

from my side my dream is to lear an eloctronic enginer, I have chose this

supject cause I like the challenge and this supject not easy and not every body

Succeed it.

Thats my dream about learning. But for sure there is another dreams about the life,

for example: to get the respect from the people around you,to be like all the people.

I think that a human without he is nothing. creat you self.
