Our month of May unfolds soft pastel haze to spread her joy ahead of summer days. 'Tween buds of April and June's full-bloomed phase spring daffodils and tulips pave the ways for lilac and forsythia bouquets. Lush verdant leaves create a rich, dense maze from warmth and rain through her 'communiques' to wake lush growth and blossoms 'neath sun's rays. Our month of May lifts up our hearts with praise; her transformations of landscapes amaze. A child of spring, her growing scene displays 'till summer's full maturity sashays. Then lovely May will yield without delays, as June slides in to bring full summer blaze.
