March has kissed me,

I am all unraveled.

Spring had missed me

and I had missed the flowers.

He comes in colours

I had long forgotten.

His mouth devours

and my mouth is open.

He comes in whispers,

then in mighty howls.

His love is brittle

and his arms are shallow.

March did kiss me,

but it is now September.

Spring has missed me,

I hardly remember.
