When I Grow Up, I'll Be an Astronaut

A child tells his mother that he has hopes of becoming an astronaut when he grows up. This poem comes alive as the child's imagination becomes a magical candy world filled with sweet treats like lollipop trees, caramel rivers, and chocolate houses. Amidst the delightful fantasy, the child humorously wonders how he and his mother shall quench their thirst in such a paradise filled with sweet treats.
