ODE TO MAY

May has come in flowered lei
With many rainbows on display
       and fields of green
       are quite serene
Unlike the brown of summer's burn

The smell of budding orchards sate
The air with nectar 'round my gate
       and birds and bees
       are searching trees
And every flower, shrub, and fern

The bees for honey for the comb
The birds for twigs to make a home
       they buzz and sing
       and often bring
A rhythm to the poets ode

Oh May we thank you ever more
You touch our hearts and you restore
       the waking sod
       our faith in God
And peace where e'er we abode.
                   Fish Hawk

Lovely poem, fish hawk! Thank you!

I read where May Day is Lei Day in Hawaii. I clicked on the graphic and the page said, “Sorry, this is not available.” And that was the only one I could find.

Is it true that May Day is Lei Day?
