Notes About The Poem

May 8, 2025, placed 1st in Joseph May's Rondelet contest

*******************************************************************

Proms, Mother's Day, and Graduations



On warm May days, 
teenagers dress for their prom dates.
On warm May days,
we moms receive our well-earned praise.
For many, graduation waits;
accomplishments, each celebrates
on warm May days.
