You Can Be Anyone You Want To Be

You can be anyone you want to be! The teacher said. I want to be a marshmallow. I want to be a frog. I want to be a daisy. I want to be a computer. The teacher stopped the kindergarteners. You have to be a human. I want to be a unicorn. I want to be a dragon. I want to be fire. What do you want to be, teacher? I want to be a gumdrop, she admitted.
