Chapter 6 - Clouds

We walked back together,
Hand in hand and I asked,
"What would you like for dinner?"

She looked up at the sky and said
"I think I would like a Cloud to eat."
If this was a poem, I thought, it would be a winner.

I smiled and said
" Its too hard to make"
She replied " Just put a ladder
against the sky and pluck one off and put it on a plate."

I laughed " Okay then, but just in case
what would you second choice for dinner be?"
She thought as she skipped along and said
" I think chicken fried rice would be great !"


Feb 12th, 2014 - A real conversation with you, little Ponyo. If only I could pluck you a cloud. You did get fried rice that night minus the chicken though. But last night, i did over come all my reluctance and make you and Mowgli shrimp curry :) !
