Seeking the famous rain
Mister Mark Twain travelled to Spain
But, alas, his quest was in vain
He began to cry
As the ground was dry
But his tears were few
Since the sky was blue
That hardy man from the old frontier
Had hardly ever shed a tear
But when your thoughts are set
You sometimes forget
That what you expect
And what you think is due
Might not connect
With what turns out to be true.
