cloud
I saw a cloud that was a wizard
I saw a cloud that was a lizard
I saw a cloud that was an ox
I saw a cloud that was a fox
I saw a cloud that was a lark
I saw a cloud that was a shark
I saw a cloud that was a snake
I saw a cloud drink from a lake
I saw cloud that lost its way
I saw a cloud who wanted to stay
I saw a cloud that seemed to be new
I saw a cloud that had turned blue
I saw a cloud that made a twist
I saw a cloud that had a fist
I saw a cloud that had a cap
I saw a cloud that was on a map
I saw a cloud that had a scar
I saw a cloud that hid a star
I saw a cloud that fired a shot
I saw a cloud that rained a lot
I saw a cloud that was of lead
I saw a cloud that went through a head
I saw a cloud that could explode
I saw a cloud that was on the road
I saw a cloud in a uniform
I saw a cloud that was so warm
I saw a cloud that was so young
I saw a cloud that sang a song
I saw a cloud that was of mist
I saw a cloud that was on a list
I saw a cloud that had no choice
I saw a cloud that had a voice
I saw a cloud that was a lizard
I saw a cloud that was an ox
I saw a cloud that was a fox
I saw a cloud that was a lark
I saw a cloud that was a shark
I saw a cloud that was a snake
I saw a cloud drink from a lake
I saw cloud that lost its way
I saw a cloud who wanted to stay
I saw a cloud that seemed to be new
I saw a cloud that had turned blue
I saw a cloud that made a twist
I saw a cloud that had a fist
I saw a cloud that had a cap
I saw a cloud that was on a map
I saw a cloud that had a scar
I saw a cloud that hid a star
I saw a cloud that fired a shot
I saw a cloud that rained a lot
I saw a cloud that was of lead
I saw a cloud that went through a head
I saw a cloud that could explode
I saw a cloud that was on the road
I saw a cloud in a uniform
I saw a cloud that was so warm
I saw a cloud that was so young
I saw a cloud that sang a song
I saw a cloud that was of mist
I saw a cloud that was on a list
I saw a cloud that had no choice
I saw a cloud that had a voice
I saw a cloud that was a vase
I saw a cloud that had a face
I saw a cloud that was of wool
I saw a cloud that was a tool
I saw a cloud that was a saw
I saw a cloud that had a claw
I saw a cloud that had a jaw
I saw a cloud that broke the law

wolk
ik zag een wolk als stenenik zag een wolk met vier benen
ik zag een wolk met een zilveren jas
ik zag een wolk die een veulen was
ik zag een wolk die opstond
ik zag een wolk met neus en mond
ik zag een wolk die leek op een kalf
ik zag een wolk die leek wel half
ik zag een wolk als een zwaluw
ik zag een wolk zo lichtschuw
ik zag een wolk die niet kon falen
ik zag een wolk op het water dwalen
ik zag een wolk die leek op een zwaan
ik zag een wolk die leek op een haan
ik zag een wolk in extase
ik zag een wolk in vazen
ik zag een wolk in bloemenpracht
ik zag een wolk met wilskracht
ik zag een wolk die op een roos leek
ik zag een wolk die als een gids keek
ik zag een wolk die een schip bezat
ik zag een wolk die nooit de tijd vergat
ik zag een wolk die met as strooide
ik zag een wolk die zich met een masker tooide
ik zag een wolk met een uniform
ik zag een wolk als een worm
ik zag een wolk in een parlement
ik zag een wolk met een permanent
ik zag een wolk als een god
ik zag een wolk in het cachot
ik zag een wolk die astronoom was
ik zag een wolk die monochroom was
ik zag een wolk met een gouden kant
ik zag een wolk zo elegant
ik zag een wolk die helemaal zwart was
ik zag een wolk met een langzame pas
ik zag een wolk in bezit van landmijnen
ik zag een wolk met veel richtlijnen
ik zag een wolk die weinig sliep
ik zag een wolk die door rood liep

sky
jeg så en sky som var en steinjeg så en sky med fire bein
jeg så en sky som var av sølv
jeg så en sky som var et føll
jeg så en sky som reiste seg opp
jeg så en sky som hadde fått kropp
jeg så en sky som var en kalv
jeg så en sky som var blitt halv
jeg så en sky som var en svale
jeg så en sky som lå i dvale
jeg så en sky som var uten lyte
jeg så en sky som kunne flyte
jeg så en sky som var en svane
jeg så en sky som var en hane
jeg så en sky som var i ekstase
jeg så en sky som var en vase
jeg så en sky som var en lilje
jeg så en sky som hadde vilje
jeg så en sky som var en rose
jeg så en sky som kunne lose
jeg så en sky som var en skute
jeg så en sky som var i rute
jeg så en sky som var av aske
jeg så en sky som bar en maske
jeg så en sky i uniform
jeg så en sky som var en orm
jeg så en sky i et parlament
jeg så en sky med permanent
jeg så en sky som var en trone
jeg så en sky som skulle sone
jeg så en sky som var astronom
jeg så en sky som var monokrom
jeg så en sky med en gyllen kant
jeg så en sky som var elegant
jeg så en sky som var helt svart
jeg så en sky i sakte fart
jeg så en sky som var eksplosiv
jeg så en sky med et direktiv
jeg så en sky som virket trøtt
jeg så en sky som gikk i rødt
