Question

My Little Dreams
by Georgia Douglas Johnson

I’m folding up my little dreams
Within my heart tonight,
And praying I may soon forget
The torture of their sight.

For time’s deft fingers scroll my brow
With fell relentless art—
I’m folding up my little dreams
Tonight, within my heart.

Answer 2

Answer: There is regret in giving up on dreams

Explanation:

In the poem "My Little Dreams," written by Georgia Douglas Johnson, the speaker is keeping her dreams in her heart. This signifies that she is remembering her dream but just to herself not pursuing it. She can't bear looking at them since she hasn't completed them which denotes regret as she could not pursue her dream. That's why she's folding them and putting them away. Her advice is to always pursue our aspirations, or we will regret it later, just like she did. Hence the theme is to pursue one's dream even if it seems difficult. She emphasises on the fact that one should go ahead with their dreams because it leads to regret on giving up on my dreams.
