Nothing's wrong

Terry Tez 1966 (Yangon)

Nothing's wrong to dream.
Dreams are for young ones
to fulfill their life calling.
More to look forward than just remembering.

Nothing's wrong to remember.
Memories are for old ones
to cherish their life recalling.
More to recall than just dreaming.

Nothing's wrong to be present!
Presents are for the graceful ones to
Know yourself that you are
Past and Future
meeting now and here!

About this poem

One man 'right' is a another 'wrong'. People do different things due to their different levels of maturity. Nothing is wrong about it . A thirsty person drink water. A hungry person eat food. A wise person know thyself.

    There are some odd lines in this poem. It would read better and clearer if it were modified to, " There is nothing wrong with dreaming." Or, "Dreaming is not wrong."
    You're trying to make a case, but the poem is in need of some improvement to make the thought comprehensible or give it a better unity.
