The best thing to hold onto in life is each other —Audrey Hepburn

March flower daffodil, canary yellow, a single bloom with the vernal equinox Aquamarine birthstone, gift thyself a ring this birthday, wrapped in a jewel box Romans marched on, this month they named after God of War, Mars, mythology Caesar, Julius’s downfall 44 BC, oracle warns “Beware the ides of March” 15th History has Texas no longer Mexico the 2nd of 1836, Independence of Lonestar Mad as a March hare! The full Worm Moon peaks illumination the 25th afar Animals mate, larva of worm thaw and emerge from hiding, and birds migrate During Lenten abstain from meat on Fridays, give alms, read Sacred Scripture NCAA March Madness kicks into gear, basketball fan’s cheer the lively picture Easter, 31st Good Friday 29th, Palm Sunday, Purim 24th, and Ramadan on 11th Saint Patrick’s is celebrated the 17th we're a wee bit Irish, if only for the day Spring arrives on 19th, Daylight Savings on 10th set clock, spring forward we say

SO, we are a diverse community although lately I've been deeply troubled by our Christian and Jewish friends, they have taken away women's rights, and voting rights, using God in the name of vengeance. I am disappointed in our Israeli allies, who right now are committing atrocities, it's hard to watch. Thank you!

Dear Anaya, Your acrostic poem beautifully captures the essence of March with its vibrant imagery and rich symbolism. Each line paints a vivid picture of the month's significance, from the blooming daffodils to the historical events and cultural celebrations. Your meticulous attention to detail and creative wordplay make this poem a delightful exploration of March's multifaceted nature. Very creative. - Blessings, Daniel
