CLOUD SONGS AND RHYMES

WHEN I SEE CLOUDS IN THE SKY
Tune:  “My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean”

When I see clouds in the sky,
All big and puffy and white,
When I see clouds in the sky,
The weather is sunny and bright.

White clouds, white clouds,
White clouds up in the sky.
White clouds, white clouds,
White clouds, puffy and dry.

When I see clouds in the sky,
All big and solid and gray,
When I see gray clouds in the sky,
The weather is rainy all day.

Gray clouds, gray clouds,
Gray clouds up in the sky.
Gray clouds, gray clouds,
Dropping rain from up high.
                                    Jean Warren
(You could also sing about gray snow clouds if you wish.)
 

CLOUD RHYME

What’s fluffy white and floats up high,
Like a pile of cotton in the sky?
And when the wind blows hard and strong,
What very gently floats along?

What brings the rain, what brings the snow,
That showers down on us below?
When you look up high in the sky,
What is that thing you see float by?

THE CLOUDS ARE PASSING BY
Tune:  “The Farmer In The Dell”

The clouds are passing by,
The clouds are passing by,
Heigh-ho, just watch them go,
The coulds are passing by.

The clouds are passing by,
Way up in the sky,
Sometimes fast, sometimes slow,
The clouds are passing by.

RAIN CLOUD RHYME

Rain clouds, rain clouds in the sky,
I really hope you’re passing by
But in case you’re here to stay,
I’ll just go home instead to play!

Tune:  “Bingo”

Today the clouds are in the sky
And cloudy is the weather.
C L O U D Y
C L O U D Y
C L O U D Y
And cloudy is the weather.
