Dark clouds matter

Oh dark clouds creeping in

You are such party spoilers

I was having fun with the white fluffy clouds

They gave me some welcome shade from the hot Miami sun

Whilst leaving me plenty of nice blue sky to look at

I could play outside all day with white fluffy clouds above me

Now I must run inside quickly

Take shelter from the impending rain shower

Which you indiscriminately scatter below you

As you slowly drift by looking for more victims

I wonder if you were born fluffy white

Then got fat collecting so much water vapor and became darker

After dumping all your rain will you get paler

Maybe you were born dark and doomed to rain on parades forever

You probably chase down fluffy white clouds and eat them up

Cannibalistic party spoiling sinister dark clouds

I bet you have no friends at all

Other than farmers

Maybe flowers, plants, lawns and trees, 

Also reservoirs, and water companies

Plus hydroelectric power plants

Not forgetting streams, rivers, lakes, fish and rain dancers

Come to think of it you are really quite popular

Black clouds matter

Are you nuts about nuts

People are probably passionate about phenomenal pistachios

Cats crave to calmly chew charming cashews

An armadillo always ate adequate almonds

Be brave before brazenly biting basic bold Brazil nuts

Hop into a hilarious haze with happy hazelnuts

Maybe munch on marvelous magical medicinal macadamias

Plan a party preferably with plenty of persuasive pecans

Peter pines for Penelope’s precocious pretty pine nuts

We would wait a while for wonderful wild wacky walnuts

Pop in a pile of pesky pivotal persistant peanuts

But peanuts are really lazy laidback lavish legumes

Not nutritious naughty native nut nibbles
