Was Praised and Eulogized

Was Praised and Eulogized

When I had awakened and did yawn
Dream that existed was now gone
And it contained my desire to be
President of America home of the free.

If President what would I do first
Make acceptance speech well rehearsed
Present to people each goal I had
Make happy and ensure none were sad.

After I spoke my much anxiety grew
Prayed to God who made sure I knew
Must be prepared to fulfil each need
Protect them and not into danger lead.

Met my goals and God was sure to thank
And back into another sleep I soon sank
Died and went to heaven when I realized
People had praised me and was eulogized.
