January, February And March

January brings winter snows and gusts
Of cold, swirling winds.
Homeowners get busy with their snow-
Blowers to clean sidewalks and drive-
Ways.
Children wear boots, mittens, warm
Hats and jackets on their way to school.
The city’s salt trucks and snowplows
Are busy cleaning snow-covered streets.
That’s what January is all about!

February is also nasty, snowy, and
Cold.
Children, however, enjoy playing in
New-fallen snow, making snowmen
And throwing snowballs.
February celebrates Presidents’ Day
In remembrance of Abraham Lincoln
And George Washington.
February 14th is Valentine’s Day--a
Day when we send cards, flowers,
And eat lots of candy.
Yes, February is a busy month, too!

March is winter’s final blast and is
Probably angry since April makes
March completely disappear.
We've already forgotten those freezing
Temperatures of January and February.
However, March can be quite a monster,
Holding on until the 31st, the last day of
The month!

Soon warming sunshine will help
Crocuses poke their stemmed leaves
And lavender and yellow blossoms
Above the ground; so let’s look ahead
To milder days when we can just wear
A lightweight jacket!

Did you know that March 4th is the most
commanding day of the year?
