A Hero

By Amir, age 8

How Can I be a Hero?

I can sing to whales in an ocean bay.

I can sing along all day.

I will go visit people in the hospital,

To cheer them up.

I'll make them some popcorn,

Or maybe a cup.

I'll keep all the dangerous snakes away.

If they are nice snakes I will take them to play.

I will change my brother if he is crying.

And when he gets to be three,

I'll teach him how to read,

And do science and math and social studies.

I will help him get to third grade.

Just like me.
