Dream till you cannot
The night stars will be your guide.
This is your best dream

Comments and criticism welcome!

oooh....*takes deep breath*  A truly beautiful haiku Cassers.  And very well done with what I know about them.  The stars are very becoming to you, methinks.

I like this one much Cassers!  Dreaming is the only way to go (looky at my quote, LOL), and I agree with the stars being your guide, a humble honest light, shining down through millenia and miles... Beautiful!

Dear DE,cool sentiments here...if i may offer some suggestions:

try not to use words like "the", "this is" as these are passive terms and tell the reader nothing...use active verbs...run,walk,happy,fabulous,furious just to name a few

hence my revision:

Dream till you cannot~
Bright night your faithful guide~
Treasure your best dream

hope i helped
