Water Cycle


Somewhere out there,
The sun is shining on a little puddle,
That's something that we call...
The Water Cycle.

Water from the little puddle turns to gas,
Evaporation...
The gas forms into puffy clouds,
Condensation...
The clouds get heavy,
and the rain pours down,
Precipitation...

...and more puddles on the ground...

(Chorus)
Oh the water cycle round and round,
Vapour goes up and the rain comes down.

Water in the sky, in the ocean, in the ground,
Its all in a cycle going round and round.


Some clouds look like a horses tail,
That's cirrus
Some look like cauliflower,
That's cumulus.
Some clouds look like a blanket of gray,
That's stratus.

There are high cloud low clouds and in between clouds,
Fog on the ground is also rarely seen clouds...

Yeah, yeah, yeah!


(Chorus)
Oh the water cycle round and round,
Vapour goes up and the rain comes down.

Water in a river, in a glass in a cloud,
Its all in a cycle going round and round.

When warm air meets cold air,
Trouble brews,
That could mean a storm,
And that's bad news,

A hurricane can form,
When that happens near warm water,
Look out if that storm reaches land,

Get out of the way,
Grab your sons and daughters,
Crash, bash, boom, kabam!
Oh no! We forgot Uncle... Dan!

"I'm OK, I'm alright. I was just hiding in a garbage can"
He was hiding in a garbage can...


(Chorus)
Oh the water cycle round and round,
Vapour goes up and the rain comes down.


Water in a person, in a well, deep down,
Its all in a cycle going round and round

The Snow

Shared Writing


Snow flakes shine like diamonds,
They twinkle in the soft moonlight,
It looks peaceful like a sleeping dove,
And swallows the old landscape.

Quietly whispering onto every tree,
It murmurs on the bark,
Branches moan as they grow heavier,
The snow claps angrily as it hits the ground.

It dances like a ballerina in the wind,
Each flake gently kisses the ground,
Covering the world like a soft linen blanket,
The dreary waves of snow sleep solemnly.

The beryl-blue water contrasts the lurid sky,
Abandoned trees sleep under their blankets of snow,
Cones of perpetual snow envelop rooftops,
Chimneys breath out smoke from the fires inside.
