One day a boy went swimming in the lake. He looked up into the sky to see if he could spot any clouds. He did not see any. The little boy was sad so he went to the ocean to see if he could see any clouds. He wanted to see clouds because they reminded him of his favorite cotton candy. It was cold that evening so he went home before he could catch a cold.
