Welcome February
Sue Cartwright • 30 January 2024
A poem celebrating the beauty of Nature in this fourth year leap year
Welcome February, in your fourth year leap year;
We know that you promise at least one week fair;
When early bees appear and fog means frost in May;
Together we make the best of all you bring today.
Welcome February, or Februa in olden times;
Thank you for purifying the air, the soil, the land;
As frogs leap, rooks caw and woodpeckers thrum;
Pure white snowdrops gleam in angelic throngs.
Welcome February, leading us into Spring;
Bless us with the natural joyous treats you bring;
With longer, warmer days and tiny buds on twigs;
Nature prepares to waken, in a spiralling whirligig.

for you, for me and for Mother Nature
