Question:

Does anyone know the author of this poem?

one broken dream is not the end of dreaming
one shattered hope is not the end of all
beyond the storm and tempests, stars are gleaming
still build your castles though your castles fall

it's from a book of inspiration I have, but it doesn't list an author or a title. It's one of my favorites and I was wondering if anyone out there knows the author. Thanks!


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: The poem is entitled "Dreams" by Edward A. Guest:

One broken dream is not the end of dreaming.
One shattered hope is not the end of hoping.
Beyond the storm and the tempest, stars are gleaming.
Still build your castles though your castles fall.

Though many dreams come tumbling down in disaster,
And pain and heartache move you down in years,
Still keep your faith and dare your hopes to master.
And never cry that you have ceased to dream.
