Celebrate Sunday
Unwind built up stressfulness
fly kite on a windy day
Wrap Maypole on Mayday
Monday called, "Hurry back to work"
052020PSCtest, Weaving A Wayra, Ornette Onclaud
The fates led me to your path,
hanging by a comet’s tail
flying around being dragged;
Mayday hiding salvation;
Unable to regain control,
unavoidable contact;
The stars made me say ‘Hello’.
That's almost as good as sex, heard someone say
Bite your tongue, you silly, there's absolutely no way
Sex sits at the top
How could you forget
Steam from your ears screaming “Mayday!”
Mayday tomorrow,
but the pole has been toppled,
the good earth churned by munitions,
and then seeded with Claymore mines.
There will be no dancing on rubble ruins,
as we bury desecrated corpses,
this year’s harvest will be lean.
That's almost as good as sex, heard someone say
Bite your tongue, you silly, there's absolutely no way
Sex sits at the top
How could you forgot
The steam you emit from your ears screaming “Mayday!”

Kicks tires
Checks wires
Full stop
Revs prop
Must heed
Airspeed
Thumbs up
Climbs up
No sweat
(Not yet)
Alas
No gas
In spin
Chagrin
No chute
Oh shoot
Bad day
Mayday
Crashed plane
On plain
Washout
No doubt
I am a softer word
softer than plywood
Whats in a name
I ask myself,
but a veneer of transposition.
an arraigned truth
From Mayday to University Hospital
from the prosaic to the nomenclature
That's the power of a word
a reason to believe
Mayday!
Mayday!
This heavy heart is drowning me
I'm distressed and in a panic
And so far away from shore
Call the coast guard!
Send out an SOS!
I'm not equipped to say goodbye
In unchartered waters, you left me behind
Alone
To navigate your stormy seas
Today is May; it’s May today!
And will I like this day? I may
Or maybe not; too soon to tell.
I may, if things are going well.
For I should say, that’s if I may,
That if this day won’t go my way,
A Mayday! shout won’t save the day
Or possibly, it might or may.
Mayday, Mayday Kirk!
Transport to Galileo
Needs energizing
Running on impulse
All deflector shields are down
And venting plasma
Possible core breech
Romulan battle cruiser
De-cloaked and attacked
They've taken the ship
Corbomite Maneuver may
Be the last resort...
Silence so loud.
At times, deafening.
Vacant stare,
Exposed, exploited.
Muzzled, mocked.
Engaged in the war
Fighting a losing battle.
Rifles out, ready.
One, two, fire.
Man down.
Mayday!
Yes, send help.
Stay calm,
Escape reality,
Lost again.
Fragile soul.

The most rejuvenating one -
Fresh threshold to hot summer fun.
Blossom and bloom to awesome new,
Coincidence, my birthday too.
Goddess of Growth, this time - her fave,
The force of May's destined to save.
No wonder it stands for Mayday
Majestic month, my final say!
May 1, 2022
Almost died myself the 1st of May, 2 years ago,
Seizing as I had another death of my ego.
Flashing forwards to first 4 days of May just a year ago,
I lost a cousin all because of sins of "the ego."
Suddenly remembering my grandfather who passed 2 years ago,
I recall how he was born post-war on Cinco De Mayo.
Every day of May is a merry hay day
Every Mayday speaks of the labor's way
Every way of the day of May may say
Every day of May is a merry hay day
Every hay made in May rests on the brae
Every hay, by storm, may go often stray
Every day of May is a merry hay day
Every Mayday speaks of the labor's way
1 July 2021
Joyful singing and laughing people dancing,
Celebrating around the maypole, clapping,
First of May and the Morris Men are prancing,
Partytime and the music’s so toe tapping.
Birthday girl, you are crowned with pretty flowers,
Ev’ry May is your month, come sun or showers,
Fairies gather as dusk is slowly falling,
Mayday feasting is always so enthralling.
Jack Horne for Linda-Marie’s May Magic birthday greeting
First day of May
When people gather in one circle
Workplaces become so quiet
But streets and junctions so noisy
Public facilities at stake
Also wives and kids
The aspirations come on behalf of God and human right
Labor right
Conveying to the authority and the power
The employer and rich men, being lose
As if lose
First day of May
The day people strive for being more human
Being richer, more powerful and recognized
Blazing marigolds of a blazing May
Giving a wide canopy over a shaded pathway
Against a neighbouring tree of fading laburnums
He celebrated with a bottle of Chardonnay
Falling into a dreamy langour
As the laburnums sprinkled in gentle foreplay
Too hot for fowl-play
Many a distress calls of Mayday
Running hither-thither
His hamster decamped
To the cool of my glass ashtray
A sense of belonging everywhere at play
This is one happy birthday!
Everyday reciting a silent plea
my stomach tied in perpetual knots;
Do I do it to myself? Maybe;
It’s been so long that I all but forgot;
Burning my soul and prickling my eyes
so intense you echo my mayday;
Your voice, my exact flavor of paradise
drowning slow, I blissfully float away;
Consumed by you and wound into your guitar
trapped between peace and the pain it brings;
The finish line seems so achingly far
held in the hands of six stinging strings.
Mind full, Titanic
Mayday from thoughts that flew
A slow sink from a cloud that destructively fell
A loud bang from thoughts resisted
A window broke no move
Passengers of the past terrorize and flee
And in sorrow the titanic goes
With its own gone and forgotten
And as the waters bury what's left of them
A new wave came
Along with a sailor to rebirth what's dead
And a while it took for them to resurface
But the sinking became a float
A float that now resists to sink
a spurge, a spruce, a creamy spume
of Moscow mayday tree in bloom,
a crush, a diffidence innate
to youth, a long-awaited date,
a me, excited, nervous, pale,
a garden seat, a nightingale,
a slice of sun in strongest tea
of dusk, a braid, a trendy tee,
a checkered knee-length skirt, a you,
a sigh, another one, a few
looks at the wristwatch, an abyss
of desperation, a… a kiss.

I'm exploring things I don't yet comprehend,
Penning down my current moods, with a twist at the end
I’m just trying to transcend this mindset that I been trapped in
Yeah I been going through some things I wish could change
Praying to god saying his name in vain, yahweh
Yeah wait, I can't even complain because nothing's set in slate
I realize we’re all slaves to the same game.
Yet all we do is play the blame game.
I’m yelling out mayday lookin for away to escape
All this mundane
Lost
Makinde Adebayo Adeniyi
Tears in the rain
Like rivulets running down my face
Forming a pool at my feet
Lonely river flowing into
the open arms of the sea
Lost in the depth of the deep
Then the sun takes it all up
And down it comes again
Tears in the rain
Lost in the torrent
Lonely river flowing into
The open arms of the Sea.
The ship is lost at sea
Tossed around by the waves
Broken to pieces by the storm
The anchor no longer holds
Mayday! Mayday!! Mayday!!!
