When she started school she wanted to be a firefighter
Until she felt the sting of the fireplace.
When she was 7 she wanted to be a florist
But found hay fever unbearable.
When she was 10 she wanted to be a nurse
Until she was diagnosed

When she was 12 she wanted to be a hairdresser
But had no hair left to dress.
When she was 13 she wanted to be a pilot and see the world,
By the time she was 15 she had her heart set on it
Until she heard the bad news and decided peace was all she wanted.
By her 16th birthday her long battle had been lost
So she became an
angel
