All day long, clouds hung low
   (pretending rains would come)
 but never did winds blow --
   and no rain came, therefrom.

"Oh, duplicitous sky,
   why have you lied to me?"
 It offered its reply,
   "What grand audacity!

"You left your umbrella home.
   So, what else could I do?
 But close the azure dome, 
   and some respect accrue!"
