A child is not a vase to be filled, but a fire to be lit.
— Montaigne 1533–1592
The March poets have caught the spirit of being a youngster. They have given birth to artistically magical lines that explore the world of children and conjure up the beauties, worries, and memories of childhood.
With acute and cute accuracy, some have created sweet, solemn poems, others deliciously playful pieces, and one even offered a riddle whose solution gives the key to a successful infant life. The March poems are to be savoured like true delicacies.
— Brigitte Poirson
