Here is a lovely poem to wish you all a Happy Mayday and a Happy Month!

Mayday by Sara Teasdale(American poet,1884-1933)

A delicate fabric of bird song
Floats in the air,
The smell of wet wild earth
Is everywhere.

Red small leaves of the maple
Are clenched like a hand,
Like girls at their first communion
The pear trees stand.

Oh I must pass nothing by
Without loving it much,
The raindrop try with my lips,
The grass with my touch;

For how can I be sure 
I shall see again 
The world on the first of May 
Shining after the rain?
