March Wind

This brutal March wind that bellows and bullies tearing through trees, and assaulting roofs as it pounds against my window’s glass and rips away expectations of long awaited spring Even as it brings frozen drops and sputters of snow pushing trash cans scattering life’s remnants though I am forced to hide under woolen blankets and stir the coals of hickory logs I bow to its greatness and behold the beauty of its power

Love the acknowledgment at the end --- and the harsh, bitter reality of the previous stanzas, Jerry. Longest month of the year for me. It feels as if March has 62 days...

Nature is well equipped to show her power, and there is little we can do to refute her energy. Living in New Orleans, I have been brutalized by it during many hurricane seasons. Well written, Jerry.
