I Sit In A Classroom Poem by Charlotte Ballard

I sit in a classroom
So quiet and bare
Just for a moment
I sit there and stare.
 
I sit for a minute
Long after classes end
Dreaming of a time where
for myself I fend.
 
Maybe an astronaut
To swing upon a star.
A dancer, an actor
that to see, people come far.
 
A doctor so wise
That nobody dies
a trucker, a farmer
Or anybody that tries.
 
It really doesn't matter
What I finally chose.
I'm only in the first grade
And stand just three foot-two.
