welcome march

"Oh, get up, my dear friend, my fair and faithful one—
leave your seclusion, come out in the open.
Let me see your face, let me hear your voice;
for your voice is sweet and your face is lovely.
Arise and come with me.
Look around: the winter is past; the rains are over and gone.

Flowers appear on the earth; the season of singing has come."

Song of Solomon chapter 2, vs 11-14
