My Childhood Dreams Came True

Folder: 
Self Poetry

I took a survey today, and realized my child dreams have come true;
Now, I never have a reason to be blue.
For, when I was a child, I dreamed of being a poet;
Now, myself and many others know it.
I also dreamed of being a writer;
And now, I am and my depressed brain feels much lighter.
I also had a dream of being an environmentalist;
And, since I pick trash sometimes off the road, I feel more blissed.
For, I am doing mostly what I should;
Except for the drinking and smoking; which isn't good.
I need to slow down on these habits;
Because, I get as slow as turtles and as fast as rabbits.
These habits are so bad for my lungs, heart and liver;
It would make Mount Rushmore quiver.
I need to look out more for my body;
And stop being so very naughty.
For, it would be nice to live many more years;
And would surely quite my fears;
That I will die so slowly and young;
After, my true happiness has just begun.
So, I need to have strength inner;
Because, in life I don't want to be a loser; I want to be a winner.
