Personal best:
The poem Hold onto your dreams! by Barbara Laing

No matter what Life brings,
Onto your dreams keep hold,
Always try to cherish them
And treasure them like gold,
For, if you keep them in your heart
And nurture them each day,
They will sprinkle you with magic
As you walk along Life's way.
So, if you keep them in your mind
In everything you do,
You very soon will find
Those dreams will all come true

(used by kind permission of the poet)

Background:
Barbara Laing writes inspirational and spiritual poetry.

Tony Jeffries says:
I like poetry but Hold onto your dreams! means a lot because it was sent to me by my late coach's brother whilst I was preparing to fight for a medal in Beijing.
