If I Were...

If I were a month, I’d be August
If I were a day of the week, I’d be Friday
If I were a time of day, I’d be Dawn
If I were a planet, I’d be Earth
If I were a sea animal, I’d be sea turtle
If I were a direction, I’d be whatever direction points to home
If I were a piece of furniture, I’d be a comfy couch
If I were a liquid, I’d be rain
If I were a gemstone, I’d be a diamond
If I were a tree, I’d be a Willow
If I were a tool, I’d be an interchangeable parts power tool
If I were a flower, I’d be a tiger lily
If I were a kind of weather, I’d be the perfect beach day
If I were a musical instrument, I’d be an acoustic guitar
If I were a color, I’d be yellow-gold, like the glow of a sunset after a perfect day
If I were an emotion, I’d be love
If I were a fruit, I’d be a mango
If I were a sound, I’d be laughter
If I were an element, I’d be fire
If I were a car, I’d down size and be a motorcycle
If I were a food, I’d be homemade lasagna
If I were a place, I’d be where the mountains meet the ocean
If I were a material, I’d be jersey cotton
If I were a taste, I’d be surprisingly sweet, tart, and a little bit fizzy
If I were a scent, I’d be fresh lavendar
If I were an object, I’d be a journal
If I were a body part, I’d be the eyes
If I were a facial expression, I’d be a smile
If I were a song, I’d be a mix tape of songs that make you smile
If I were a pair of shoes, I’d be barefoot and free
