Free-Minded

I started to remember around four
Even the breathing began at the embryonic stage
My parents gave me complete human parts
To survive a long trip 
In an unpredictable future… Upon destiny!    

I grew up in the serious working ethics
And assisted the impermanent dependents.
In the past, I was under the strict regulations
But most times I was free-minded!
I feel more and more free
While moving to the golden age.

The sky was not only a nice working place
Though enhanced freedom
To fly like the plane in the air 
To float like the boat in the river

Proud of myself to be a hard-working man  
Live a simple life… insufficient once in a while
In any situations I always bear a pen:
A loyal friend during my long trip;  
Move together until the final day.
Hopefully the footprints of a free-minded life  
Will reach out the next generations!
