A Show of Clouds
Let us recite
As I lie on my back,
Looking up at the sky.
I see a big white bear,
Looking down at me.
As I lie on my back,
Looking up at the sky.
I see a ship sailing,
On a white sea.

As I lie on my back,
Looking up at the sky.
I see an elephant, 
Waving its trunk at me.
As I lie on my back,
Looking up at the sky.
Oh! It’s fun, it’s fun to me,
To see whatever I want to see.
