The Bartlett Family Adventure

The Bartlett Family Adventure is all about the moments that take my breath away as I grow in the glory of God, and live my life to the best of my ability while raising two rowdy boys. This blog is not just about me, it also includes stories of my family's daily adventures. We home school our boys, are trying to grow our fruits and vegetables, we are all on a journey to God, we are trying to live sustainably, and most importantly love the life we lead. Sometimes we stumble, but mostly I like to think we prevail. I am blogging to keep a sort of shared journal. Our life may be messy but it is perfect.

Poetry Thursday


Today I found the poem I wanted to share with you and then I searched youtube. This means you get two poems today read by Langston Hughes. I hope you enjoy them.
 
 
 
 

The Dream Keeper

Bring me all of your dreams,
You dreamer,
Bring me all your
Heart melodies
That I may wrap them
In a blue cloud-cloth
Away from the too-rough fingers
Of the world.

Dreams
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.


I hope that your day is filled with inspiration, love, and laughter. Be well my friends.
