If I was...

I decided to take Caroline's challenge over at http://www.coeurdela.com/ and try out this creative list...it almost reads like a poem...in fact I am now envisioning a way to include it in my lesson plan! (If you haven't checked out Caroline's blog do it NOW! It's fabulous!).




If I was a month, I’d be late March


If I was a day of the week, I’d be Saturday.

If I was a time of day, I’d be twilight
If I was a planet, I’d be Pluto.


If I was a sea animal, I’d be an easy going manatee.


If I was a direction, I’d be East.



If I was a piece of furniture, I'd be an big comfy bed.
If I was a liquid, I’d be cool, fast river.

If I was a gemstone, I’d be an amethyst.



If I was a tree, I’d be a magnolia tree.





If I was a tool, I’d be a sander.



If I was a flower, I’d be a Lilly.

If I was a type of weather, I’d be a cool bright October day.





If I was a musical instrument, I’d be the bass.

If I was a color, I’d be a warm chocolaty brown.








If I was an emotion, I’d be restless.



If I was a fruit, I’d be grapes.

If I was a sound, I’d be a a low constant buzz





If I was an element, I’d be water.

If I was a car, I’d be an efficient,practical and messy focus.









If I was a food ... I'd be a slice of fresh baked bread slathered in butter..



If I was a place, I’d be Charleston.





If I was a material, I'd be a soft piece of cotton.



If I was a taste, I'd salty-sweet..

If I was a scent, I’d be clean laundry.
