Welcome March

A poem celebrating the joy and vibrancy of the new Spring season

Welcome March - A Poem by Sue Cartwright, Spiral Leaf


Welcome March, light of the Earth, Alban Eilir;

Spring Equinox, Ostara, Eostre, true and fair;

Awakening of life, renewal, leafy bowers;

Fairies, Butterfies and Toads, Rabbits and Spring flowers.


Welcome March, your namesake, active Planet Mars;

Agricultural guardian, shines bright beneath the stars;

Hedgehogs, Moths and Badger Cubs, fields of boxing Hares;

The break of day, a symphony of vibrant singing birds.


Welcome March, with longer days, ever warming Sun;

As the natural world unfolds, a new season has begun;

Buds begin to blossom, spiral fronds unfurl;

Feel the tender joys of Spring, the magic of new birth.
