May
Tiny snowdrop clusters who
In early March together grew
Are now tulips, planted two-by-two!
“May is here,” Mother said,
“For in the corner flower bed
White’s exchanged for merry red.”
‘Tis the work of someone sweet,
In the dirt, sets of footprints meet,
The tiny tracks of faerie feet!
-L. Smith
