I wish I was a kangaroo, I wish I was a clock, I wish I was the stripe in someone's sky blue sock. I wish I was a purple pig with a polka-dotted trimming, I wish I was a halibut, I wish I was in swimming. I wish I was a mutton leg or just a leg of lamb, I wish I was most anything than this dumb thing I am.
I found this poem in a really old textbook in my grandmother's house. She didn't know who wrote it, and there wasn't a signature or anything, so I decided to post it because I thought it was cute.
