March On

The ides of March are upon us,
With spring to follow closely in step.
    As we begin to welcome St. Patty,
    And all those Easter eggs lie ready to prep.

    Seen and heard is the madness of basketball,
    Collegiate craziness to never end.
        As the hoops are tallied to an adding machine,
        While would be champions begin to spend.

        A renewed beginning is nature's way,
        That brings some warmth to open eyes.
            As daylight savings slowly unveils,
            and longer days lead to nights demise.

            Fresh upon this cycle of growth,
            The lengthy passage yields few rules.
                Only to follow a path moving forward,
                Eventually to end...with April fools.
