Roaring Through March
Cast off that bulky winter
coat of snow!
The time has come for such
burdens to go.
Enough is enough, let's
have spring begin.
Woodchucks ignore
predictions by your kin.
Be it fair or be it
covered with clouds,
Let's gather together in
friendly crowds
And swap our tales of life
shut up within;
Unbundle and unbutton –
show some skin.
I have survived another
frosty season
And escaped boredom with
most my reason.
From mental hibernation, I return
And for next year's
challenge I start to yearn.
You may have January as
your year's start,
But I feel March a-beating
in my heart.
Its rallying rhythms rouse
from torpid
Those wintry moods that
have grown so morbid.
There may yet remain a
snowstorm or two,
A dozen inches to shovel
my way through,
But, as before, my cheer
increases daily --
Maybe I will learn the
ukulele.
