Why does the Moon show phases in the course of a month?

Clouds get in the way of the Moon's light and cover up parts of it. The Moon glows from the inside and its various continents glow different amounts. The angle the Moon makes with the Sun changes and we see differing amounts of reflected sunlight. The Earth's shadow falls on the Moon to different degrees as the Moon goes around.
