March Reflections

March is a lion or a lamb
depending upon the speed of the wind.

March is either
stressful or delightful
depending upon the interplay
of events and emotions.

On the last Saturday in March 2019 ,
I contemplate the month's
lion and the lamb winds;
this year
they reflected
the events and emotions
of my personal life.

I inhale the morning chill,
whisper a prayer of thanksgiving
for surviving the month,
and move on--
knowing that April will
either be stressful or delightful.
