Summary: It’s a beautiful autumn day. Susan Bones and Eloise Midgen are walking by a remote mountain lake almost forgotten in time. They talk of lost dreams and infinite futures. Despite the brisk wind they decide to buy some ice cream in a small stall. The two girls sits down in the wet grass and soon they’re lying on there backs laughing and looking at clouds. Their fascinations for the celestial bodies are almost childlike and soon their thoughts are voiced over the mountains.

Author's Notes:
This poem is written for the most wonderful girl in the whole wide world, Anna Periwinkle. Happy Birthday, love.
Look. A sheep.
Do you think there are cloud people up there?
Like shepherds guarding the little cloud sheep.
I wonder where they sleep at night.
Or where they go when the wind whisks them away.
Look. A badger.
It’s watching over its younglings.
Where do you think they are when it gets dark?
Maybe they have a cloud cave
Where she keeps them safe and happy.
Look. A peacock.
Wouldn’t it be grand if the clouds had colours?
You’d be able to see the wonders of the feathers.
The beautiful waves of green and blue.
A serene experience of sight.
Look. Two girls.
They’re holding hands and running.
Suppose it was you and I up there.
Frolicking through a forest of clouds.
Playing hide and seek in the mist.
