THIS IS A LITTLE LATE i KNOW BUT i WROTE THIS ONE QUITE RECENTLY
In the gloom of winter, I dream of May,

Awaiting her touch as she passes this way.

A whisper of warm breath in my hair,

As the May breeze, caresses me there.
Blooming May, like an expectant mother

brimming with beauty, unlike any other.

Softly and suggestively she delivers hope,

of fresh beginnings and new ways to cope
Earth in May, sports a velvet green gown,

Shimmering with dew under a misty down.

Trees are bursting , proud fat and healthy

Magnificent Oak’s are once again wealthy.
A square field of corn, like buttermilk on gold,

guarded by wild hedges, like soldiers, bold.

Hide and seek rabbit’s playing out at dawn

darting and weaving at the edge of the corn.
May blesses with a kiss, the mysterious wood,

Carpeting where once, winter shadows stood.

She sprinkles her magic in most vibrant hues,

With delicate little bluebells in lilac tone blues.
Oh how I dream of May’s maternal embrace

To bathe in the warmth of early sun on my face.

To walk barefoot and feel the grass on my skin,

breathing moist woody aroma’s deeply within.

June,

A very lovely poem! I enjoyed it very much.

For dreams are the tiny seeds from which tomorrow grows.'

Dear June,

I wish that I was there with you
Bet the atmosphere must have been as awesome as your beautiful writing

Love
