Kite

Upon the eye

I see the sky

Winking and blinking

Blue and white

Just like a kite.

Muswell Hill, London.

The Weather

The Weather is rain, sleet, clouds, sun, thunder, lightning, and mist.

Imagine being in a boat when all this weather was together....

ER.............. UM

HMMM....

WELL...

ME?

YES, YOU!

Not me.

Why?

Because think of all that thunder and lightning and rain...
