Why I am So In Love With March!

When I was still in the UK, the month of March brought joy as it was the first month of Spring and so it signals the end of the bitterly cold and gloomy winter. I love Spring the most. It carries a happy tune, and is full of hope and new beginnings. My spirits always went up several notches in March.

"The air is like a butterfly
With frail blue wings.
The happy earth looks at the sky
And sings."
- Joyce Kilmer, Spring

"Each leaf,
each blade of grass
vies for attention.

even weeds

carry tiny blooms

to astonish us"

- Marianne Poloskey, Sunday in Spring

And how could I forget the symbol of Spring, the daffodils! A field of daffodils marks that Spring has arrived!

"I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze."
- William Wordsworth, Daffodils

And of course I love March because it's in the month of March that I was married to the love of my life :)

BUT

There is another occasion, very significant to me in March. To be exact, the very last day in the month of March. That is TODAY!
