2 Corinthians 5:17 by Ethan G.

I used to be a book
But now I am the Holy Bible
I used to be a tree
But now I am the tree of life
I used to be death
But now I am life
I used to be Saul
But now I am Paul
I used to be a fish
But now I am a merman
I used to be sand
But now I am a pearl

My Childhood by Aquetzalli S.

I used to be a little cat
But now I am a tiger
I used to be the cloud
But now I am the sky
I used to be a student
But now I am a teacher
I used to be a teacher
But now I am coffee

I Used to Be by Leanne O.

I used to be a squirrel
But now I am a nut
I used to be a marker
But now I am a pencil
I used to be a math book
But now I am a book
I used to be a teacher
But now I am a cafe
I used to be angry
But now I am happy
I used to be a moon
But now I am a sun
I used to be a Barbie
But now I am a girl

I Used to Be... by Brandon S.

I used to be a chicken
But now I am a chicken soup
I used to be a rain
But now I am a name tag
I used to be a clip
But now I am small
I used to be a book
But now I am to read
I used to be a tree
But now I am a cat

I used to be the Earth
But now I am the solar system
I used to call you on my cellphone
But now I am iPhone 6S
I used to be a desk
But now I am a table
I used to be a blanket
But now I am a bed

Untitled by Sophia R.

I used to be the only child
But now I am a big sister
I used to be a bee
But not I am honey
I used to be a caterpillar
But now I am a butterfly
I used to be a turtle
But now I am a rock
I used to like to party
But now I sing
