I Used To Be…
Giovanna Andrade, Junipero Serra Elementary
I used to be the ground
that everyone steps on
but now I am heaven
where everyone is welcome
I used to be a cloud
for the people to guess what shape I am
but now I am a cloud with rain
that people stare at and wonder about their life
I used to be a dead rose
with all my petals that have fallen off
but now I am a healthy garden
of beautiful roses
I used to be a broken weak branch
but now I am a strong confident trunk of a tall tree.
