Cloud Metaphor

Clouds in the sky reveal their intention Their color is always a dead giveaway, There is no known effective intervention. You know what’s coming if they are gray, Gathered in a group for a sky convention. If they are white and fluffy like cotton We do not give them a second thought They’ll soon pass over, entirely forgotten If a pleasant east wind they have caught I’ve thought, for a cloud, this is so rotten.

I love to sit and watch the big, fluffy ones, though.

They have been gray here lately Milton lots of rain. I guess that is better than snow. Are we ever happy with the weather?
