Windy March

Windy March

March is meeting February
Like a feisty dog fights through a fence;
Barking back the cold of winter,
And spreading seeds for a flowering spring.

March barks at cold February,
Clinging to the bitsy buds on trees,
Albeit it blows in a cough or a sneeze,
Winter will wane indeed, 

And windy March will win.

Making March into a "feisty dog" - perfect metaphor. Windy March will wind. True!

love the feisty dog metaphor Sunlite - and March is certainly biting us here, we have snow on our mountain, gales and stormy conditions. Oh and April will bring us showers so much to look forward to lol:-) hugs Jan xx

Today, March is winning the battle, but February is not out yet! Great stirring piece!

How true dearest, Sunlite! The buds of my lemon tree were frozen and the pots of my flowers on the roof garden were overturned . This year was extremely harsh! Marvelously written!
