I'm a Big Kid Now

"We're working on poems right now in English Honors 1 and today we were making our own song or free-verse poem and while I was thinking of a subject, I all of a sudden had the motto: 'I'm a Big Kid now' from Pampers (or is it Huggies?) in my head. Haha, well enjoy! This poem cheered me up a lot in 5th period."

Happy Birthday to me!
For I'm a big kid now.
I can do anything I want
Because I'm a big kid now.
And what the little kids do,
I can do better
Because I'm a big kid now.

Whatever the class does--
Kickball, four-square, or handball--
Whatever the other kids play--
Duck-duck-goose, tag, or red rover,
I can do better.
Me with my two, yes, two,
Me with my double digits
And me with my double digits means
I'm a big kid now.

Surpassing kickball, four-square, handball,
Red-rover, duck-duck-goose,
Even playing freeze tag, they all know that
I can do better,
Of course that I can do better,
With me with my double digits,
Because I'm a big kid now.

I'm a big kid now.
I can do anything I want
Because I'm a big kid now.
I can do better than everyone else
Because I'm a big kid now.
I don't need anyone telling me what to do.
I can do anything I want,
I can do better than everyone else,
Because I'm a big kid now,
Me with my two, yes two,
Me with my double digits,
And me with my double digits means
I'm a big kid now.

"Hunny," Oh no, my mom is calling me.
I wonder what she wants.
"Time to do your new chores."
I don't want to be the best,
This isn't what I expected,
I don't want my double digits,
Take the birthday back,
Yes, take my birthday back,
Because I"m not a big kid yet!
