The day is cold, and dark, and dreary
It rains, and the wind is never weary;
The vine still clings to the mouldering wall,
But at every gust the dead leaves fall,
And the day is dark and dreary.
My life is cold, and dark, and dreary;
It rains, and the wind is never weary;
My thoughts still cling to the mouldering Past,
But the hopes of youth fall thick in the blast,
And the days are dark and dreary.
Be still, sad heart! and cease repining;
Behind the clouds is the sun still shining;
Thy fate is the common fate of all,
Into each life some rain must fall,
Some days must be dark and dreary.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, 1842

Clouds always amazes me... Sometimes I think there should be just a cloud challenge if never been done before :) not bad photo, very ordinary as you might guessed. I know it probably looked much better in real life :)
I couldn't agree more with your title. Not a bad cloudscape, yet it doesn't hold my interest as well as other images in the challenge. Perhaps if there was a bird or some other element it would be more interesting.
