All in the Merry month of May...
Here's to the day when it is May.
And care as light as a feather,
When your little shoes and my big boots
Go tramping over the heather.~Bliss Carman~
'Twas as welcome to me as flowers in May.~James Howell~
The maple puts her corals on in May.~James Russell Lowell~
Then came fair May, the fairest maid on ground,
Deck'd all with dainties of the season's pride,
And throwing flowers out of her lap around.~Edmund Spenser~
Hail, bounteous May, that doth inspire
Mirth, and youth, and warm desire;
Woods and groves are of thy dressing,
Hill and dale doth boast thy blessing.~John Milton~
When May, with cowslip-braided locks,
Walks through the land in green attire.~Bayard Taylor~
