Last Line: And praise as mere as blame
Subject(s): March (month)
Last Line: And praise as mere as blame
Subject(s): March (month)
Dear March - Come in -
How glad I am -
I hoped for you before -
Put down your Hat -
You must have walked -
How out of Breath you are -
Dear March, Come right up the stairs with me -
I have so much to tell -
I got your Letter, and the Birds -
The Maples never knew that you were coming - till I called
I declare - how Red their Faces grew -
But March, forgive me - and
All those Hills you left for me to Hue -
There was no Purple suitable -
You took it all with you -
Who knocks? That April.
Lock the Door -
I will not be pursued -
He stayed away a Year to call
When I am occupied -
But trifles look so trivial
As soon as you have come
That Blame is just as dear as Praise
And Praise as mere as Blame
