Jump on a cloud; let’s go for a race.

Mine’s an elephant with a smiling face.

Yours is a dolphin leaping over the waves.

He seems a bit wild; I hope he behaves!

Let’s race to the rainbow, glistening with light.

We’ll count all the stripes – so fun and so bright!

Then leap onto colour, floating down with a flutter

To land in the prize – a pot of golden butter.
