The Little Cloud That Traveled the World

High up in the sky, a tiny puff of cloud woke up.

Good morning, world!” said Cloudy with a yawn

The warm sun tickled his sides and made him float higher

“I’m floating! Wheee!” giggled Cloudy.

Below him, mountains sparkled with snow.

Then a cool breeze whispered, “Come with me.

Cloudy drifted over fields and rivers.

Cloudy’s puffs grew heavy and gray.

I feel heavy,” he said. “Like I’m full of water!”

“Don’t worry,” said the wind kindly. “It’s time to rain.”

So Cloudy let go, drop by drop.

The rain made rivers flow and frogs sing

The sun peeked out and said, “Time to shine!”

And together, they made a rainbow!

“I’m going on another adventure!” said Cloudy.
