If I Was King
By: Anika B. Age: 11
Maple Elementary School
If I were a king
I would have a castle and a mote
And a great golden coat
And a farm with three-hundred-twenty-two goats
If I were a king
I would wear a crown upon my head
Sleep on a soft feathery bed
And my entire kingdom would be well fed
If I were a king
There’d be no starvation
We’d all have a five month paid vacation
And we’d all have a higher education
If I were a king
War would be no more
And each family would have a house with a roof and a door
Although I’m no king and for now this is a dream
Maybe, someday, my ideas will reign supreme
