what if i was

there once was a tiger sitting by the tree thinking to himself, how would life be? If i was a bee?

I could fly, hide and have a lovely hive

but oh no! Of me they will all be scared, that ill sting them! And if I’m a bee honey ill make the honey will be all mine but they will still take it away! So now, a bee I do not want to be!

But oh! what if I was a horseshoe crab on the shore? I’d have ten eyes to find my way and sand under my claws all the day. Crawl on the bottom of the ocean in piece and quiet.

But no! If I was a crab on the shore trees and the forest won’t be my home! I whole be scared all the time with no place to go. So no a crab is not for me!

I was thinking some more, what if I was a horse? I’ll gallop in the sunset, eat all the grass and hay I want have lots of friends and lots of fun in the sun.

but no if I was a horse then fly’s buzzing all around me and bothering me. Ill be stuck in a small space with no one to keep me company. I won’t be able to feel free.

I know! What if I was a dog id have A owner, a friend and someone always by my side. I will be able to play and have lots of friends and do whatever I want.

but if I was a dog, I won’t be as big and as fast. I will be trapped all day doing nothing and have no freedom. I don’t think a dog is for me

Maybe… maybe a cat ill be. Everyone will pet me I can eat what I want and walk around free. Have long claws but fun and sweet.

But if I was a cat everything will be bigger then me. And some people might think I’m not too friendly people would give me faces and kick me out of places.

a cat is just not for me.

Oh, wait what if I were a monkey. I could climb trees be free and have lots of people admire me everyone would love me.

But if people came close to a Monkey, they would try to take me and keep me in a cage I would be sad and stuck. That’s not good oh well I guess I don’t want to be a monkey.

The tiger thought about what if he was a snake. he could hide and not be noticeable. Eat big animals even if they were larger then him and be able to protect himself with his venom. Being a snake sounds so good. But wait snakes are gross and slimey no one ever wants to be near one even if its not dangerous. A snake is not what I want to be.

The tiger was thinking some more of what he was a frog. I could jump around have a big family live in a nice beautiful lake with all my friend.

but the he realized that if he were a frog he would be so small a lot of animals would like to eat him and he wouldn’t be able to protect myself from danger.

The tiger got tired of thinking of animals he could be. If he was a bird he could fly if he was a mouse he could hide if he was a dolphin he would be loved by many if he was a mole or an ant he would live in the ground and not worry about the outside. and more he wanted to feel special. The tiger was thinking of over a hundreds of animals he could be until he realized a tiger is a great animal to be.

The tiger thought for a long time of  all the great things tigers can do. Being a tiger is not that bad, I can run fast and camouflage and I’m big and tough I can protect myself agents anything or anyone. I am a great hunter I find all the best meat.

So actually a tiger I like being!!
