DAY 3 PROMPT THE FINAL 5
PEACE OUT MARCH!
A
BANANA BAR MINI CHALLENGE
FAREWELL TO MARCH
THE FINAL FIVE DAYS


DAY 3 PROMPT


In the spirit of March, I borrowed this from the internet.

Daily Calendar for Tuesday, March 29, 2022

Borrowing Days
The last three days of March have a reputation for being stormy. Scottish folklore proposes that these three days were borrowed from April so that March might extend his power. The Spanish story about the borrowing days is that a shepherd promised March a lamb if he would temper the winds to suit the shepherd’s flocks. But after his request was granted, the shepherd refused to deliver the payment. In revenge, March borrowed three days from April, in which fiercer winds than ever blew to punish the deceiver.

A Scottish proverb describing these days:

March borrowit from April
Three days, and they were ill:
The first was frost, the second was snaw [snow],
The third was cauld [cold] as ever’t could blaw [blow].


Today's blog challenge is to write: A (your choice) proverb describing these days of your own.
You may be inspired to write about folklore in addition to your proverb or instead of a proverb.
Have fun with the borrowed time.
