Savage Bro
By Dylan V.

I used to be a game
But now I am a controller
I used to be a Roblox character
But now I am a hacker
I used to be savage
But now I am average
I used to be a canine
But now I am a normal dog
I used to be a player
But now I am a controller
I used to be a cloud
But now I am a sky
I used to be a Pokémon
But now I am a normal person

 

I Used To Be, But Now I Am
By Akayla W.

I used to be a pumpkin.
But now I am a seed.
I used to be a desk.
But now I am a pen.
I used to be a dog.
But now I am a girl.
I used to be a football.
But now I am a basketball.
I used to be a heart.
But now I am a clock.
I used to be a cloud.
But now I am a dream.
I used to be a sky.

 

I Used To… But Now
By Gabriel E.

I used to be ice
But now I am ice cream
I used to be an iPhone
But now I am a TV
I used to be a plant
But now I am a tree
I used to be A
But now I am B
I used to be Xbox
But now I am PS4
I used to be food,
But now I am candy
I used to be cake
But now I am pie

All My Changes
By Sophia B.

I used to be a singer
But now I am a singer and Dancer
I used to love soccer
But now I love singing
I used to be a fan
But now I am a plant
I use to be a flower
But now I am a clock
I used to be a robot
But now I am a calculator
I used to be a girl
But now I am a devil
I used to be an angel
But now I am a devil

 

A Crazy Day
By Nala R.

I used to be a dog lover
But now I am a cat lover
I used to be a baby
But now I am a woman
I used to be a pencil case
But now I am a fan
I used to be a girl
But now I am a glasses
I used to be a shoe
But now I am a friend
I used to be a writer
But now I am a poet
I used to be a mailer
But now I am a broom

 

My Changes
By Radames B.

I used to be a kitty cat
But now I am a bird
I used to be a robot
But now I am snow
I used to be a panda
But now I am a potato
I used to be a desk
But now I am a pencil
I used to be a kite
But now I am a space man
I used to be hand sanitizer
But now I am water
I used to be a dragon
But now I am a dog

I Used
By Berenice V.

I used to be an egg
But now I’m a bird.
I used to be a flower
But now I am a tree.
I used to be a caterpillar
But now I am a butterfly
I used to be smart
But now I’m more smart
I used to be a tree
But now I am a star in the sky
I used to not be smart
But now I’m more smart
I used to like to run
But now I like video games.

 

Good Guys
By Steve Y.

I used to be a money
But now I am a penny
I used to be a computer
But now I am a little computer
I used to be a clock
But now I am a person
I used to be a stinky shoe
But now I am a new shoe
I used to be an angel
but now I am a ghost
I used to be a fish
But now I am a cat
I used to be a milk
But now I am a cow

 

Los Poemas de Brayan
By Brayan A.

I used to be a horse
but now I am a nose
solía ser un lápiz
pero ahora soy una agua
solía ser una libro
y ahora soy un basó
yo usaba lentes
y ahora no
solía ser un papel
y ahora soy una silla
solía ser una hormiga
y ahora un pez
solía ser un borrador
y ahora soy un radio
solía ser una rosa
pero ahora soy una margarita
solía ser una botella
y ahora soy una casa
solía ser un pizarra
y ahora soy una leche

Translation:

I used to be a horse
but now I am a nose
I used to be a pencil
but now I am water
I used to be a book
and now I’m a base
I used to wear glasses
and now I don’t
I used to be a paper
and now I am a chair
I used to be an ant
and now I am a fish
I used to be an eraser
and now I am a radio.
I used to be a rose
but now I’m a daisy
I used to be a bottle
and now I am a house
I used to be a blackboard
and now I am a milk
