Clouds
On a beautiful spring afternoon
I relax—and lie down
On the soft greengrass
Breathing in the fresh smell that I can feel all around
My attention is taken up to the clouds.
For up there in the bright blue sky
Is a fluffy white world of cotton on candy animals
And castles built with marshmallow bricks.
But I must be creative and take the time
To bring this world into focus
So I take a breath
And squint my eyes just a little bit.
And before I know it—there they are—A big bear
Soft as a pillow, quietly curls up to sleep
As a tiny, cotton ball mouse
Jumps out from a lion's house
What a treat to spend my afternoon
With these newly found friends moving by!

Dear Molly,
I just got your letter with the picture of you riding your bike.
From the smile on your face, I can tell how much you're having. I still remember when you could ride a tricycle(儿童三轮自行车).You're a long way!
Now here's some . I'm sure you're a good rider. But you will that bike now and then. So please get a helmet. Wear it every time you ride. A helmet will help protect you a head injury.
Wearing a helmet when you ride a bike is as as wearing your seat belt when you ride in a car!
No, I'm trying to be a bossy know- it-all. I just don't want a bad fall to wipe that smile off your face.
When you come this summer, bring your bike and your helmet.
We'll take some great rides together!
Your cousin,
Vera
