Once I was

Once I was impolite Once I was a sticky stinky mess Once I was sloppy Now I am polite Once I was wobbly and unbalanced Once I was scared to get up Once I was an obnoxious toddler Now I am poised Once I couldn’t keep my head above water Once I was a scarty cat Once I played it safe Now I am adventurous Once I was a follower Once I never lead Once I was afraid to be original Now I am me
