Rhymes for To-Day
March.

March is gusty, March Is dusty.
March is very full OF airs:
March's breezes shake the treeses
AS no other season dares.
March's blowing sets a-going
Nearly everything that's loose,
Sets stray papers cutting capers
More for meanness than for use.
And it's signing starts a-flying
Hats OF every shape and sort
Sends them shooting. far a-scooting
Ere their owners see them caught.
It's SO windy some rough shindy,
Is its necessary part:
1t is puffy till it's gruffy,
And it's blowy as an art.
And 1t bothers not just fathers,
But our sisters. wives and aunts,
BY its flirting with their skirting,
Setting petticoats a-dance.
It's so heady. rough and ready,
Bold and bad and little arch,
I'd have chosen being frozen.
Rather'n torn about by March.
