May Comes In Disguised As a Faerie

May comes in disguised as a rainbow unicorn faerie.
She leaps into the air dancing on frothy snow clouds.
We try to slow her up, so we can fully see her
But she turns herself into a hummingbird, 
and all we can see is movement.

May prances her truth, whirling with wonder.
Sprinkling her lavender violets among the clover 
So daintily, we do not notice at first, 
But when we do, we are in awe, for she is so 
gloriously done up, and in such a slick, artistic, pastel way.

May brings in roses, tulips, and Rose of Sharon.
Her blooms are the prettiest we have ever been.
She shows off, but not mightily, 
May is subtle, yet endearing.
Her sights.
Her sounds.
Her fragrance.
No magic compares to the enchantress,Miss May.
