Funny by Abby A.

I used to be shy
But now I am brave
I used to be big
But now I am small
I used not to be a poet
But now I am a poet
I used to be a writer
But now I am a reader
I used to be an idiom
But now I am a metaphor
I used to be personification
But now I am hyperbole
I used to be a simile
But now I am the world

But now I am a poem

But now I am a poet

I used to be pepperoni
But now I am cheese
I used to be reading
But now I am math
I used to be tacos
But now I am pizza
I used to be a pool
But now I am sand
I used to be good
But now I am amazing
I used to be ice cream
But now I am cookies
I used to be flowers
But now I am roses
