HAPPY FEBRUARY


February means we're just that much closer to spring.
February means Valentines and other nice things.

There is a hint of Spring in the air.
Everyone's spirits are starting to lift,
And Mr. Groundhog is coming out of his lair.

This year is leap year and Sadie Hawkins' Day,
Doesn't that mean you gals can ask a feller out,
And isn't that what 'Lil Abner used to say?

I think he used to run from Daisy Mae on that particular day.
He was afraid she might catch him, and he'd have to get hitched,
isn't that what he used to say?

February is short and brings us that much closer to Spring.
It is far better to me than what January brings.

January brings colds, flu and nasty weather.
I'd rather have February, and have a Super Bowl get together.

Yea for February, St. Patrick's Day will soon be here.
I'm looking forward March, this first day of Spring part of the year.
