March held us in the grip of her cold embrace
One snowstorm after another with fierce pace
March brought breezes, wind loud and shrill
Its power was devastating, enough to kill
Knocked down giant trees like pick-up-sticks
Shocked the suburbs, power lines nicked
Flowers were confused and dormant lay
Birds on the wing took off, could not stay
Fickle to the core Spring appeared one day
Alas, twas but a teaser, March came to stay
And plunged the suburbs with deep snow
While New York City cleared up below
Daylight Savings time tricked us early
But March continued to remain surly
St. Patrick's Day had a sunny reprieve
Green pride gave us cause to relieve
Then March 20th the First Day of Spring
The snow returned with a dusting bring
Our patience challenged. time was retreating
The sweet, sweet Spring was eagerly greeting
Palm Sunday fared better with a sunny smile
Gave pause to enjoy fair weather for awhile
Passover brought with it the promise of Spring
While other celebrants knew Easter would sing
And alas, March was ushered right out of the door
We all gathered hope that true Spring was in store!
