March 2012

“In like a lamb and out like a lion” OR “In like a lion and out like a lamb” Leaving a snow white trail across my yard and giving a mighty roar, the lion had arrived. The beast of winter crept off within the first week. Sun now strokes my cheek. I can almost hear a bleat. March will go out like a lamb. Written by Andrea Dietrich A Kimo & Tanka for Russell Sivey's Contest: A Mesh of Forms

Well done and great first place win. March came in like a lion here and never changed. We have had a nice Easter weekend though. I had 35 dinner guests and a big egg hunt in my yard. Lots of fun. Oh, congratulations on your win. Love, Joyce

Nice poetic combination. The lamb has been the predominant animal in New Jersey this March. I am quite thankful for that.

Nice one and what a great winter we have had. If only every year was like this one winter would be fun. The geese are arriving back and I was greeted by lots of honking two mornings ago. Spring is on the way. love phyl
