"May Day".

I'm sat here remembering yesteryear Mays.
They're striking my heart as much happier days.
Yet, the diaries I wrote; they emote and dismay.
For, those pre-summer times were too spent in the shade.

A lovely quatrain, ap.

Two very difficult things that you have accomplished:

effortless and not contrived rhyme

extraordinary diction.

(and, of course, compression)

I really appreciate these comments, my friends. I'd be interested in reading the poem you mention, Stuh505.

An odd piece that grated me at first, but became smooth as silk after a few readings. Not just another poet, you! Well done!
