Stuck In March

I am stuck in the middle of March, where trees are skeletons against the sky, and the dirty snow just won't go away. Yet birds sing, oh sweet, sweet Spring bring rain falling, can you not hear me calling . . . Would love red roses on my garden arch, I am ready March to say goodbye, wishing for sunshine not clouds of grey. Kiss of Spring, stop your dilly-dally, la di la crawling, I dream of grass sprawling . . . _______________________ March 27, 2017 Rhyme/Stuck In March Copyright Protected, ID 887844 March Middleness Dave Will Fifth Place

You have expressed marvelously the dreariness of the month. 'Stuck' is the best word for this conundrum we are in and the 'dilly- dally' line is fabulous. The vibrant 'red' colour you added feels so hopeful. I really enjoyed this delightful poem... so creatively penned...a joy to read. many blessings to you

Our weather has been beautiful, but severe storms predicted tomorrow. All my trees popped out! Lovely poem of "thoughts."

Hello Broken Wings. Contest or no contest. This entry stands on its own. And this March your words are so true. We are stuck in her madness for she has been wild this year. May we see those red roses soon. Well done and expressed. Good luck with the contest.

It is definitely a long month and seems even longer when spring is just around the corner waiting for April to appear. I like how you did this and expressed your "cabin fever" so poetically. Good luck in the contest.
