A CLOUDY EXAMPLE
"A CLOUDY EXAMPLE"
* * * * * *
Have you ever stood tn the great outdoor
and peered at a cloudy sky?
And see a face you've seen before
in a cloud that formed on high?
Well, I have at times and the cloud defines
exactly who is who;
and the mystery came when the person's name
is someone that I knew!
'Twas a lot of awe and I'd drop my jaw
from facts of the strangest kind,
that no matter in a cloud I saw
was a face that came to mind.
Now, don't deny, simply go and try
on a fleecy cloudy day;
and start by thinking of "ole" Abe Lincoln,
then scan the cloud's array;
I'll swear to you that from the blue,
you'll see his face appear,
with his big bow tie and tall hat too,
and the length of his hairy beard.
I've given this ample, foregone sample,
the next step's up to you;
to test my sample of example
to find my finding true,
that from here on out, you'll have no doubt
of this tale I told to you!
