MARCH MADNESS
Windy March day—time flies.
Afternoon blink—closed eyes.
Daydreamer—huge string ball.
Spring’s arrived—kite time call.
Pterodactyl wings—raggedy tail.
Four leaf clover bows—lucky sail.
Leprechauns surf a sunbeam ray.
High up in the sky—friends play.
Snore like a lion—dreamland rhyme.
Wake like a lamb—to March time.
April Ryan author of her book April Blossoms has written numerous stories and poems including some prize winners and many for Northwest Prime Time.
SHARING STORIES is a weekly column for and about the 50 plus crowd living in the Puget Sound region. Send your stories and photos to ariele@comcast.net. Tell local or personal stories; discuss concerns around aging and other issues; share solutions, good luck, and reasons to celebrate; poems are fine too. Pieces may be edited or excerpted. We reserve the right to select among pieces. Photos are always a plus and a one-sentence bio is requested (where you live, maybe age or career, retired status, etc.).
