This poem was written to celebrate my birth month of May

"May Be" is a lovely time of year!

May be your pencil lead is old & broken

May be you have some time to sit & stare

May be you really are tired of standing

May be you dream of a brand new swivel chair

 

May be all your dreams are lost or busted

May be your bright stars are dead black holes

May be the open doors are locked and bolted

May be you dream of really long hot hols

 

May be the snows have all gone and melted

May be the rains of spring are here

May be the winds they are a shifting

May be it really is that time of year

 

May be the green trees sap is rising

May be all your pocket moneys spent

May be the lawn really does need cutting

May be but the BLOODY mowers bent

 

May be is just around the corner

May be will soon go away

May be but if you are really trying

May be is a lovely time of year
