We like March.
His Shoes are
Purple -
He is new and
high -
Makes he Mud
for Dog and Peddler,
Makes he Forests
dry.
Knows the
Adder Tongue his
coming
And presents her
Spot.
Stands the Sun
so close and
mighty
That our Minds
are hot.
News is he of
all the others -
Bold it were
to die
With the Blue
Birds exercising
On his British
Sky.
