OctPoWriMo 6 - When I Was a Child


When I was a child, I wanted to be a nurse
My mother had been a nurse and I wanted to be like her
She was my hero

When I was a child, I wanted to be a mom
I was the oldest of eight, but I wanted sixteen
I love a full house

When I was a child, I wanted to be a writer
My sister and I were always making up stories
We still do

  2. My mom was a nurse too and I wanted to be like her and wear a white uniform with the nursing hat. Thanks for sharing your poem. :)
