Not present in the year
at any other period
When March is scarcely here.”

The winds of March with beauty.”

Like a lion in the sky,
And makes us shiver
As he passes by.
When winds are soft,
And the days are warm and clear,
Just like a gentle lamb,
Then spring is here.”
– Author Unknown

The March winds are the morning yawn.”
