DEAR MR. ELIOT, I'D LOVE TO HEAR YOUR THOUGHTS RE: 'MAY'

                                                                         

 

Perhaps T.S. Eliot

Got it all wrong;

Early May

Usurps April as

"Misery Prolonged" !

Chilly, raw days

Plague multiple states;

I don't want to see

What gloom still awaits !!

poem by L.P.-G. / May 2023

MAY DAY REDUX [REDUX!]

                                                                   

My lilacs have yet

To bloom today;

So what say those

Delicate buds of May?

Now every so often

This month may fall short:

Bearing coldness and dampness,

With a need to import

Not only lilacs,

But roses and lilies;

Guess a more 'dazzling'

Spring-time

Remains my

Achilles' !!
