Phone Weather
Your phone will inform you
Of possible rain
But armed with this knowledge,
How much will you gain?
To tote an umbrella
Or not, you must ask
And if you are wrong
You'll be taken to task.
We traveled today
To a charming Swiss town
Expecting that raindrops
Would come pelting down.
The sky, though, was sunny
To soak up the views
Of both mountains and lake;
We did not have to choose.
And Lugano, though Swiss,
Is Italian as well
So I found lots of shops
With gelato to sell.
A hazelnut cone
With some chocolate dripped on
Was my choice for today;
It was too quickly gone.
Oh, and back on the bus
It soon started to pour
For a very brief time -
Guess the phone knew the score!
