March

March is a month of considerable frustrations - it is so near spring and yet across a great deal of the country the weather is still so violent and changeable that outdoor activity in our yards seems light years away. -- Thalassa Cruso

Spring is when you feel like whisting even with a shoe full of slush. -- Doug Larson

I wonder if the sap is stirring yet,
If wintry birds are dreaming of a mate,
If frozen snowdrops feel as yet the sun
And crocus fires are kindling one by one:
Sing robin, sing:
I still am sore in doubt concerning Spring.
-- Christina Rossetti
