Wizardy Witch!

I want to be a wizard

or I’d be a witch instead

I’d wave around my magic wand

and spin round Mummy’s head.

I’d make my brother hop like frogs

and make my daddy bark,

turn pebbles into sweeties and

would make my room a park.

I’d magic teacher’s little nose

to grow into a pole,

and use a spell to turn our cat

into a purple mole.

I’d magic wings onto my back

to fly around at night;

I’d look just like a shooting star,

until I curled up tight

into my bed, a sleepy head,

I put my wand away

and think up lots of naughty tricks

to play another day!
