May Day Awaiting
(in honor of May Day, 2021)
And now, our blessed Mother,
Smile on our festal day
Accept our wreath of flowers,
And be our Queen of May.
- from the hymn Hail Virgin, Dearest Mary)
This morning as I walk
outside I smell the
fresh cool morning air.
Last night we received
the gift of a light rain,
a welcome gift to a
newly seeded children's garden.
Which we seed each year,
a delight to see
its first tiny green
shoots appear.
After so many dry days,
it seems as though they
were awaiting the gift
of Earth Mother's
nurturment,
the rain.
