There was a radio show which aired fun talks,
Aspiring jobs from all kinds of walks,
Librarians in a coffee shop,
Repairing warehouses or workshops,
All in the same imagined township docks.

What occupations do reach your aspire?
That you truly so desire,
An alien hunter?
A perfect gift wrapper?
Or something to try before you expire.

I heard the radio host reply to the caller,
I would like to be a Zamboni driver,
Crisscross on ice,
It would be fun and nice,
Not for a penny nor a dollar.

There were many suggested aspiring dreams,
With beautiful, illustrious themes,
One said crane operator,
What about aerocene maker?
We leave you with those thoughts and schemes.
