May's Missing



Who the wise poet was who wrote these lines, posterity will never know but I found them very interesting:

Who first beholds the light of day
In Spring's sweet flowery month of May
And wears an Emerald all her life,
Shall be a loved and happy wife.
- Unattributed Author, May,


Well May, the all-important month-what with the anniversary and the spouse's birthday and what not-came and went without an entry :(


When April steps aside for May,
Like diamonds all the rain-drops glisten;
Fresh violets open every day:
To some new bird each hour we listen.
- Lucy Larcom

Two words registered-May (the important month) and diamonds!
