A gray and dreary day.

It’s a gray and dreary day,

very cloudy with pouring rain.

The sky is dark and overcast,

on this chilly Autumn morning.

The air has a nasty bite to it,

there’s frost on my windshield.

A cool breeze is blowing,

it’s too cold to play outside.

    It’s raining here too, though it’s not cold enough for frost. A very descriptive piece.
