Poem

Dare the Dream

Dare the Dream

Dare the Dream, seek the gift.
Play the game, get in the drift.
Always remember, to fulfill the need.
Then pass it on to succeed.
In that Moment, what we create..
A life to live without fear or hate.

So Dare the dream, seek this place.
This Moment that ignites the Human Race.
To bring the light to the heavens above.
To share this dream of the story of Love.

Story

The Moment Before the Journey Begins

This room uses Palm Springs at dawn from elevation because the image already contains the poem's command: rise, look outward, and begin. The city sits below the viewer while the first light opens the horizon.

The poem is compact, so the room gives the image room to breathe and lets the short text land like a clear call to action rather than a document.
