Premium Member June She's My Favorite Month

I couldn't stop thinking about the June
It's the month so shy and dreamy
But she could never forget soon.

That morning, June was shocked by the moon.
She found herself feeling rather beamy.
April couldn't stop thinking about June.

Later, May was spooked by the moon
She thought the situation had become rather gleamy
But I could never forget her June. 

May tried to distract her with a goon.
Said it was time to start thinking about a Niemi
I couldn't stop thinking about June.

June took action like a loon
As April was becoming too creamy
May could never forget that soon.

June nosedived like a warm buffoon
April minds became dangerously seamy
I couldn't stop thinking about my month of June
But she could never forget me soon
