Flying Into May

We soar into May with a joyful cheer,
A month of magic, the best of the year.
The earth awakens, the air grows sweet,
With blossoms and warmth, life feels complete.

On May Day morn, the ribbons entwine,
Around the Maypole, a divine dance.
Laughter and singing fill the sky,
Welcoming spring as clouds drift by.

Then comes the fifth, with a vibrant array,
Cinco de Mayo, a festive display.
Honoring courage from days of yore,
A culture cherished, rich in lore.

Mothers are honored with flowers and praise,
Love overflowing on their special days.
A gentle 'thank you' for all they've done,
Their kindness shines like the Maytime sun.

The gardens blush with tulips and peonies,
Lush landscapes hum with the buzz of bees.
Nature's palette is ever so bright,
Painting the world with colors of light.

Memorial Day calls, solemn and true,
To honor the fallen, clad in red, white, and blue.
With hearts of gratitude, we humbly stand,
Remembering those who protected our land.

Graduates march with dreams in their eyes,
Turning the page as their spirits rise.
In their caps and gowns in a grand parade,
Marking the end, and new journeys made.

May 12th shines with compassion's grace,
As nurses are hailed for their crucial place.
Healers and helpers who endlessly strive,
Their care keeps the spirit of others alive.

The birds return with sky bound glee,
Their songs have a chorus of melody.
With feathers bright, they fill the air,
A testament of nature's flair.

Pets are celebrated, our loyal friends,
With wagging tails and love that never ends.
In May, we embrace the joy they bring,
Their companionship is a boundless spring.

Through warmer days and golden rays,
May invites us to bask, to play.
Picnics, gardens, and time outside,
In May’s embrace, we all confide.

Flying into May is a journey of bliss,
A season of beauty we would not miss.
Events and wonders, laughter and care,
May is a treasure, beyond belief.
