Age Nine Bucket List

  Mountains to climb
    Jungles to explore
  Species to discover
    Rivers to ford 

  An astronaut one day
    Generalissimo the next
  Concert pianist on Saturday
    Standing ‘O’ at the Met…  

  My bucket list at nine
    worked out just fine
  None of it achieved
    No reason to grieve

That's right. Think of all the careers we considered before age ten!
