Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHGH IJIJ BIBI IKIK LMLM| The bluff March wind set out from home | A |
| Before the peep of day | B |
| But nobody seemed to be glad he had come | C |
| And nobody asked him to stay | B |

| Yet he dried up the snow banks far and near | D |
| And made the snow clouds roll | E |
| Huddled up in a heap like driven sheep | F |
| Way off to the cold North Pole | E |
| - | |
| He broke the ice on the river's back | G |
| And floated it down the tide | H |
| And the wild ducks came with a loud Quack quack | G |
| To play in the waters wide | H |

| He snatched the hat off Johnny's head | I |
| And rolled it on and on | J |
| And oh what a merry chase it led | I |
| Little laughing and scampering John | J |
| - | |
| He swung the tree where the squirrel lay | B |
| Too late in its winter bed | I |
| And he seemed to say in his jolly way | B |
| Wake up little sleepy head | I |
| - | |
| He dried the yard so that Rob and Ted | I |
| Could play at marbles there | K |
| And he painted their cheeks a carmine red | I |
| With the greatest skill and care | K |
| - | |
| He shook all the clothes lines one by one | L |
| What a busy time he had | M |
| But nobody thanked him for all he had done | L |
| Now wasn't that just too bad | M |
