Rubaiyat for May [86]
Rubaiyat for May

When winter melts to spring
and robins start to sing
amidst pink apple boughs
beware the bumble's sting.

Bound to your solemn vows,
protect and never drowse
nor ever fall asleep
awake in the here-and-now

listening to soft cheeps
of chicks that search to eat
fat ticks and bugs that hide
among young blades of wheat

and let them be your guide
for letting go your pride;
when robins start to sing
for what Mother Earth provides

listen to what flowers say,
"Accept what comes each May,
for June may change its tune.
Be grateful for this day."
