March middleness is much too fleet, coming in on a creature’s feet. Is it the lion which brings it on pouncing with a roar on my lawn? Or does it come with a lamb’s bleat? Each March must swiftly meet defeat when April brings her rains and heat. There’s little time to think upon March middleness! Spring Equinox is such a treat, for blossoms bloom which smell so sweet, then March’s middle time is gone by then - its time is brief as dawn! We long for spring yet barely greet March middleness. April 18, 2017 for Dave Will's March Middleness Poetry Contest The computer I am at right now does not allow me to scroll down through categories. That is why I gave the label "art" to this.

Sad really that we can't keep March around longer. I love the Spring, green showing through the ground, flowers starting up, my azaleas beginning to bloom. The robins and birds showing up at the feeders. Such a lovely time of the year.
