That Cloud

That cloud looks like a spaceship,
That cloud looks like a cat,
That cloud looks like a microchip,
That cloud looks like a hat,
That cloud looks like a house,
That cloud looks like a bow,
That cloud looks like a mouse,
That cloud looks like a crow,
That cloud looks like a bear,
That cloud looks like a train,
And that big dark black cloud over there,
Well, that cloud looks like rain.

About the Writer


Jonathan Sellars

Jonathan lives in Greenwich, England. He is severely obsessed with writing poems, primarily ones that rhyme. His work has featured in The Caterpillar and Parakeet magazine and his first picture book, Polly Plum: Brave Adventurer, comes out in Spring 2022. He has two small children, neither of whom can read or write poetry. He's not worried about that. Yet.
