¡½(Brain teaser)

Going down the street,

I look upon the sky and see them.

One of them looks like a sheet.

They're now downbeat.

They're nothing but

cotton candies which aren't sweet.

At God's command they don't retreat,

But they always do no harm,

As quite often they ain't complete.

When they're upbeat...

Well, with rain, the sky starts pouring.

And I hear a bird tweet.

"Please go away!", I entreat.

But they treat me as a fool.

Oh, I still haven't finished my worksheet.

"Please go away!", I repeat.

They even dance to the wind's tune,

With so much conceit.
