Moon and Venus Between Clouds

Venus and an impish, grinning Moon in the twilight sky tried to entice us to head out on our early morning walk; never mind the clouds that covered the rest of the sky. But then a distant flash of lightning followed seconds later by a low rumble warned of an approaching storm. We returned to the house; had we gone on our walk we would have been about a mile from home when the torrential rains burst suddenly from the sky. I wonder if that’s why the Moon was smirking.
