    Brilliant. There is a crafty romance in invoking the sonnet, yet this poem is so blunt. Says so much in so few words.

    Very witty. Absolutely loved it.
    “The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn, the bird waits in the egg, and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities.” ~ James Allen

    "Use what talents you possess: the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best." ~ Henry Van Dyke
