 * Poetry **



March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb...

** Like a Lion ** // Tune: Mary Had a Little Lamb //

March comes in like a lion, Like a lion, like a lion March comes in like a lion And goes out like a lamb.

March comes in with a great big wind Great big wind, great big wind March comes in with a great big wind And goes out with a breeze.


 * Like a Lion **

//Tune: Mary Had a Little Lamb//

March comes in like a lion,

Like a lion, like a lion

March comes in like a lion

And goes out like a lamb.

March comes in with a great big wind

Great big wind, great big wind

March comes in with a great big wind

And goes out with a breeze.
