It’s May! It’s May! The Month of “Yes, You May”
Traditions here are moss grown, very green
And healthy. Ordered ways have not gone down.
The white dressed cricket teams can still be seen
Though players’ skins may well be black or brown
As maybe distant centuries might have not
Been able to envisage. Weddings still
Are celebrated in a sunshine fraught
With chestnut candles. Still the same sweet drill
Of love and vows, but now the couples may
Be man and man or woman at the gate
Of matrimony with her woman. Gay
Frivolities continue at this fête.
..The pub serves beer and Sunday roasts, yes, but
….An alcohol-less beer and roasts of nut.
