Let the River Remain Mild

J-ust let March thirteenth O-pen the day with light; N-ight cold chill is over, N-ew dawn sets things A-right. S-un early Monday morn A-ims to warm your heart; R-ise of the beacon begins, G-ray haze and dusk depart. A-llow not the tide to get high, let not the crocodile turn wild; N-ever ignore the running water, let the river remain mild.
