If I Could Be… Poem by Tanvi Rattan

If, I could be a baker
I shall cook many cookies
I may bake a cake
Without much ease.

If, I could be a teacher
As lenient as one can be
I shall be a friend of my students
I am a strange girl you see

If I could be painter
I shall paint all walls
I won’t much care
That it’s the dining room or hall

I If could be an author
And could write many books
It shall be full of great stories
Not of famous machines or cooks

If I could be a doctor
I shall try to find a cure
To a many diseases
It shall be tough I am sure

But I will be a poet
And write poems you see
And work in my small cabin
And shall be as happy as one can be!
