If Clouds Were Ships

If clouds were ships then children would fly, ever higher and higher, way up in the sky. There’s cirrus and stratus, cumulus too, sailing on seas of periwinkle blue, their sails wide-billowed be. If clouds were ships Pan and friends would fly calling and waving to all passers-by. Kids would build their dreams with stratocumulus blocks they never would fall for they won’t contain rocks. Cloud creatures abound in sky’s stellar seas. It would be astounding to grow cumuli-trees.
