When I Grow Up

When I grow up,

I think I'll be,

Taller, smarter

and not so skinny.

I could become,
a master cook,
a mother,and
one who writes a book.

I'll be a lawyer,
or even a doctor,
or even a person
who flies a helicopter.

I'd like to have a big family,
and have a pretty face.
I'd like to be an astronaut
and fly into outer space.

For the more a girl lives,
the more a girl learns.
I think I'll be all of them,
by taking turns.

In Fourth grade, we had to write a poem about what we wanted to be when we grew up.So I found this in one of my old writer's notebooks and I fixed it up and made some of the words ryme, and voila!
