If I had a billion dollars,

Oh the things I would do.

I would buy all the clothing I wanted,

Most of it black or dark blue.



I would buy every CD and movie,

Every song, every last DVD.

I’d buy all of the players and iPods,

And then I would buy a TV.



I would buy a computer and laptop,

And games for the Wii and much more.

I would buy my favorite electronics,

And cellphones- they’re never a bore.



I would buy all the cutest pets ever-

Dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, and fish.

Reptiles, amphibians, and horses,

Oh what a wonderful wish.



I would get all the books that looked funny,

Or tragic, romantic, or cool.

I’d get all the horrors and thrillers,

And ones about murder and school.



Then I would buy people gifts,

And put some away in the bank.

I’d save it for my big world tour,

My wedding, and college and swank.



If I had a billion dollars,

Lord only knows what I’d do.

I’d have lots of crazy adventures,

But only if I’d be with you.


The author's comments:
I was inspired to write this by thinking about my future and what lays ahead, and what my dreams are. That got me thinking about how much money I would need to do all the things I wanted (go to college, have a huge wedding, travel the world), and so I wrote this. I'm sure many people, if not everyone, would enjoy having this much money just dropped at your doorstep.
