MARCH MADNESS ON EDGEWATER HILL by BEULAH ALLYNE BELL

First Line: HIGH WINDS AND A STORM BREWING
Last Line: BEDLAM OUT OF THE DAWN!
Subject(s): MARCH (MONTH); STORMS;

High winds and a storm brewing
And the robots of the air gone mad --
Giant hands buffeting, car slewing,
Body and chassis a frail bambooing,
Lake a vast uproar of cave-man wooing,
And the spring sky winter clad.

Taking the hill a crazed throng surging --
"Speed! -- the controls are gone."
Crescendo screams of the robots urging,
"Over the side for a long submerging!"
Boulevard? No, a maelstrom's purging --
Bedlam out of the dawn!
