This could apply to AP, to sports, politics or life in general. For example, do you aim for a million dollars or just to live a varied and interesting life? Do you aim for a beautiful partner or a nice person who is average looking? Could be some of both, of course.

I guess what I'm asking is: what is important in life? To you. 20 - 60 lines (could be scintillating or could be adequate verse). Rhyming or not. Don't try to get away with bad grammar though!

Will you win gold or just have the experience of writing?

Oh Thoughts

Beware, escape the constant dangers of acceptance and of settlement / let no walls restrain you on the endless path you walk / The hall is

My Dreams

My Dreams are simple to some but to me mean the world
They are the same dreams I’ve had since a little girl

Light for my way

Along the journey I take things all in stride,
just you and me Lord going out for a long drive.
