Welcome to the Month of May! It’s the month in the Pacific Northwest that follows a long season of rain, bringing loads of flowers like tulips and roses! What else is May?
May is the month for Mother’s Day, Cinco de Mayo, dancing around the Maypole, crowning of the May Queen, and some countries observe and honor workers (Memorial Day).
May is an Old English word originated around 1227-75 meaning “permission,” “be free to,” “possibility,” or a word used “to express a wish or desire, especially in prayer.” You may know that it is also the international radiotelephone distress signal used by ships and aircraft when you say, “May day.” May has no past tense.
Did you know that “May” also means “the early vigorous blooming part of human life”? In terms of history, Shakespeare referred to this month as “the merry month of May.”
Celebrate May
Want to make a difference? Celebrate May by making “May baskets.”
Obtain some flowers and fill a vase or basket. Sneak up to someone’s house and leave the May basket. Knock on the door or ring the doorbell and run behind a tree! Watch the person open the door and find the delightful flowers. You may make someone’s day!
