March is birthed in eager anticipation
And lays out as a blanket
The harsh, brittleness of winter escapes us
And the world emerges transposed
There is awakening
Renewal
Glory to the ladybug
Carrying promise on her back
For gardenias greet with sweetness
Before eyes lay sight
Oaks spring to life with effervescent leaves
Of a transparent luminous, green
Days stretch out like an afternoon nap
And light takes over darkness
The daffodil in her yellow dress boasts
Of her bold, daring disposition
As milky white daisies ignite
With a yellow button taking center
Roses procure themselves
Their beauty disguising their bite
The cool crisp water quickens toes
As green frogs hustle to their buoyant lily pads
Chirps make symphony and
Bees buzz, pollinating vibrant petunias
Some days the sky cries with vengeance
Saturating all things dry and thirsty
Even children heed the call
Moving through plush, green grass
In these days, in these times
We bear witness to revolution

This poem is most beautiful it its wording with some great lines like:
"And roses procure themselves
Their beauty disguising their bite"
Your imaging sets the mood and I can almost feel it. Very nicely done Katie
Thank you so much for your feedback. Is there anything that needs to be stronger, added, revised etc? It's for a contest.
In the first stanza you might want to say lays instead of lay and speaking of daisies igniting you may wish to say daisy's centers ignite since it is the yellow that brings the thought of fire. Just suggestions
Nothing to add, nothing to take away!
good write, it has a tender flow
Good story . Your story about a person embraces the changes around them.
Katie, this is alive from start to finish…like the world waking up right in front of you. There’s a sense of joy and movement here that carries through every line. Beautifully done. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Thank you as always for believing in my work!
