In the spring, a young Ted's fancy turns to thoughts of pretty much the following...

---

Aquarius (Jan 20 – Feb 19)

 

Why trace the end of

a flame when bayonets

fixed face synonymous delay -

though crowded trenches

bring some good,

as introductions swell

your social network

as sure as should.

 

Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)

 

All is good, so let life flow,

your resolving hands divine

the way of things (and

way to go), and those with

budding thoughts curtailed,

will follow your witch hazel

fork precision as it prevails.

 

Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)

 

Self discipline - bang

your tabs in. This month

of March finds you barracked

at the barricades - without a

shave: save time to strike a

flame, and so hone your

stubbled drill brigade.

 

Taurus (Apr 21-May 21)

 

Flung open door socialite

this March you are; fix

your wedge and usher a star

to friendship neat and proper and

true, for love’s soft breath

to breathe upon you.

 

Gemini (May 22 – Jun 21)

 

Professional - a starched tie

astute - as now stress complete

with the blunt front of growing

confidence gained (of labours not

necessarily lost), dress the start

of each March day.

 

Cancer (Jun 22 – Jul 22)

 

Once delivered of the early

month’s mountains - slow to rest,

and, content within a Longview

take your family and friends out -

to spread some gingham and share

some cake.

 

Leo (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

 

A lion of pride of boldest

test, will face the heated

precipice, of personal

relationships this March -

so be advised to sit; discuss -

and rekindle the art of love.

 

Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 23)

 

Virgo folk this month

be most aware; foresee things

clear - for to delay force feeds

contempt, until you can’t see

your space for the elephant.

 

Libra (Sep 24 – Oct 23)

 

Librans this March must

understand, that the fizzling

face of aggression is

no mark for an open hand -

so sit attentive - and you will be

delivered of your diligence

if you listen to me.

 

Scorpio (Oct 24 – Nov 22)

 

To reach the stars - you make

your own, each thought moment

brings you home; to sticky tape

and sticks of glue,

so rebuild life’s Empire -

and so start anew.

 

Sagittarius (Nov 23 – Dec 22)

 

For Sagittarians this month

of March, love’s fever’d church

will curve its arch, and as the

arrows shot from muscled bow,

you’ll hear the hiss of words -

‘where did all your money go?’

 

Capricorn (Dec 22 - Jan 20)

 

Life this month is an

unyielding beast, that

frowns and scowls while

binding your feet -

and all that’s left is rest

unblessed: this time in lieu

will be your test.
