Once Upon a Cloud

The duck swam fast to beat the crowd
Behind him a rabbit played with a wheel
To my dismay a lady cowed
The duck then eat her for his meal
And then I watched as a giraffe did kneel

A dragon roared past, its like a dream
A dog held up his paws in prayer
A bull raged through the crowd it seems
But none did move, none seemed to scare
Cloud stories are magical, this I do swear.

just love this Mandy, really do, i too love the clouds, and written about them often with the same mind set as you have..of course some folks thought i was on something, but never mind the image they can create as they float around in all shapes and sizes,, certainly have come across here, in this poem....
