My Flowing Dream Poem by Han Min Ohn

When I was a baby, my dream was so simple
Might someone fill my stomach, that was all I cared
When I was a toddler, my dream got a little complex
Toys for playing and eye-catching gadgets I longed for and wanted

When I was a child, I dreamed for other additional wants
I wanted to be a super hero that everybody would respect
As an adolescent, my dream shifted again with the passing of time
I wanted to hold the most beautiful girl's hand in mine

As a young adult my dream drifted off-shore again
Money and fame became targets to be retained
As I became a more mature adult and parent
My children became the dream of my current

Now that I am too old to do any job
My dreams still flowed without a stop
That is nothing more than to rest in eternal peace
In a gentle silent manner, a whispering breeze.
