Dream Job

Third grade composition topic:
"Describe what is your dream job for when you grow up?"

       When I grow up, I'll be an astronaut! I'll have my own spaceship and I'll Zoom! fly off into the sky. I'll see all the stars and the planets. I'll go to Perseus and take love notes to the Andromeda galaxy for him, and then I'll come back to earth. When I come back to earth, I'll be a painter and paint Sunflowers and Starry Nights. I'll write poems, good poems, like, actual poetry worth reading and I'll learn lots and lots of words and I'll travel through pages and go to lands of ink and magic. I'll be an elephant keeper! yeah, that's my dream job, because elephants are cool! They are big but so much bigger on the inside! Did you know elephants can learn languages? They are so big and strong, but they die if their hearts break. how sad is that? not only do they never forget, they die if their love dies.

I think I know what my dream job is. Because after looking at the stars and skies and flowers and books and poems and elephants and everything beautiful there is, I think I just want to love you; for the rest of my life, and even after that. I want to love you until I die and my heart turns to dust and each dust-speck of my heart is in love with you. Best thing I could ever dream of.
