AT THE END OF MAY

We like May

It is a buffer month

Takes us away from winter

Prepares us for summer

It is also called spring

Many surprises occur

Not dependable

Changes every year

Just the way it goes

We get the buds

Then the leafing out

The songbirds return

Ducks and ducklings

Hummingbirds

Weather changes

Memorial Day

But, now it is over

One more day, then

June will be busting out

Flowers will be out in abundance

Weeds and grass will

Require attention

Garden tools will be active

Trimming and cultivating

Gardens spruced up

Visual masterpieces

We are pleased, but

Tomorrow we start all over

Some days will be hot

Others cool

We can smell the breeze

Meadows are growing and

The flowering is beautiful

It is one month

July will be coming

Where did the time go?

July will give us a new start

We must use it wisely

Old man winter is lingering
