The Worm Moon (March)

Lorna

Worm trails on the ground

Signal the Cold Moon's flight

The earth has softened up a bit

The Worm Moon rides the night

We stir

But fires are still lit

We sit

Still waiting by the hearth

Ears pricked

    Great write Lorna and well conceived but sadly the poor old moon has as yet to warm the ground enough to encourage the worms to start their cycle . More like a Worm-in-Waiting moon Lol

    We are starting to see a little progress here Michael! But I'm sure winter isn't finished with us yet.... Song should read: "I'll be looking for the worms, but I'll be seeing you!!!!"

    Good write Lorna. Aww we never got a full moon at all in UK in February. 28 days, and the last one was end of January. Maybe two full moons in March - not checked me diary yet though.

      Odd! We've already had two blue moons this year! Maybe we took too many and left you none!

      Lorna,
      Those poor worms. They’re trying so hard to worm their way through the snow! They need some warmth! Nice pic to accentuate your enjoyable write!

      Thanks LORNA ~ In S E England we are still on Snow Alert ! The SNOW keeps the soil warm and insulated ~ but they are all staying under the sheets. Worms are cherished in the UK because they aerate and mix the SOIL and receive no fee ~ Thanks to MOTHER NATURE ~ AMEN ~ Spring Hugs ~ BRIAN @@@
