Dreams Langston Hughes 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. 作者简介: James Mercer Langston Hughes (February 1, 1902 – May
22, 1967) was an American poet, social activist, novelist,
playwright, and columnist. He was one of the earliest innovators of
the then-new literary art form called jazz
poetry. Hughes is best known as a leader of
the Harlem
Renaissance. He famously wrote about the period
that 'the negro was in vogue' which was later paraphrased
as
'when Harlem was in vogue'.
