Whatever the Weather Be

Listen to poem:
Will it rain today, or will sun break through? Will it snow, or be stifling hot instead? The willy weather drives our plans askew, But why are we so ruled by fear and dread? We have umbrellas, coats to beat the rain, Jumpers and layers to keep out the chill. Hats for shade from the blast of hot sun pain Shelter within to shield from the wind's din. But oft we forgo our fun, made forlorn By forecasts renowned as fickle and flawed Make excuses, stay in doors, day unborn When donning clothes could beat off the threat fraud. You look so stylish dressed for bad weather In you hat, feather, scarf, coat and leather.
