A WALK IN THE PARK
A/N: This is a fic I've been meaning to write for I think 3 or 4 months. It's a weird little Rachel thing, just showing how she's changed over the years of the war. I'm guessing that the war has been 3 or 4 years in Animorph time. I'm not sure if this is a poem or not................oh, just R&R please!

~~Rachel's POV~~
A couple of years ago
I took a walk in the park
And thought about how nice it would be
When I'm all grown up- of course I'll live that long
And married- maybe to that new kid Tobias?
- And I could take my kids for a walk in the very same park

Last year
I took a walk in the park
And hoped it would still be here
When I'm all grown up- *if* I live that long, and don't die fighting the Yeerks
And married- maybe to Tobias, if he becomes a human again (a human nothlit, really)
-And I could take my kids for a walk in the very same park

This year
I took a walk in the park
And thought that it *better* be here
*When* I'm all grown up- and I *better* live that long
And married- to Tobias, because I love him and he loves me- of course he'll
become a human again
-And the park better still be here so we can take our kids for a walk in the very same park

And now, just a month after that last walk in the park
I look over the Hork-Bajir valley
And pray that it'll be here- that everything will still be here- and that we beat the Yeerks
So that when I'm all grown up
And married to Tobias- if he doesn't propose, I sure as heck will
I-no, *we* can take our kids everywhere and show them everything in this very same area, I guess you'd say. Everywhere we went, it better be here,
I think,
I hope,
I pray.



A/N: Okay. This is the fic I've taken the least amount of time to write. I wrote this in like 10 minutes. Did anyone get that? It's been floating around in the back of my brain for like 3 or 4 months, so it *should* be pretty decent.
