Do you have a poem like this in your language?

Today is the last day of February, which reminds me of this poem that I learned as a child (There are actually several variations of the last lines)

Thirty days hath September,
April , June, and November.
All the rest have thirty one,
Save February, which has twenty eight,
But one year in four
Has one day more.

If your primary language is not English, did you learn a similar poem?

Νot that I know of, but we have shorter sayings about certain months.

@HannibalAteMeOut Could you give a few examples?

@DrWatson kinda hard to translate literally but about February we basically say that "even if it's cold in February it will smell like summer", we have some sayings about March being an unstable month and month of the Lent, we also say "From March there's summer and from August there's winter" and other sayings that tie each month to crops and field work.

@HannibalAteMeOut We have a saying about March as well: March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb.

Although I live far enough north that the lamb does not show up until April or May!
