Saturday Poetry Corner: The Return Of May

 

 

Hail, fairy queen, adorned with flowers,

Attended by the smiling hours,

'Tis thine to dress in rosy bowers

In colours gay...

We love to wander in thy train,

To meet thee on the fertile plain

To bless thy soft propitious reign,

O lovely May!


'Tis thine to dress the vale anew,

In fairest verdure bright with dew;

And harebells of the mildest blue,

Smile in thy way;

Then let us welcome pleasant spring,

And still the flowery tribute bring,

And still to thee our carol sing,

O lovely May!


Now by the genial zephyr fanned,

The blossoms of the rose expand;

And reared by thee with gentle hand,

Their charms display;

The air is balmy and serene,

And all the sweet luxuriant scene

By thee is clad in tender green,

O lovely May!
