It makes me want to go outside and find some things to do.

Oh what a pretty sky I see.
It's such a pleasant blue.
It makes me want to go outside
and find some things to do.

Maybe I can count the clouds
and watch which way they blow.
I know it is the wind up there
that tells them where to go.


Or I will look for birds I know
like redbirds, sparrows, ducks and crows,
And little robin redbreasts, too.
(They have such TEENY toes!)

I'll breathe the air that's fresh and clean,
and run and play and yell.
Then, when it's time to come inside
I'll have so MUCH to tell!
