May day is coming <br /> When all will be gay, <br />‘Twil be fun and frolic <br /> All the live, long day. <br />Flowers in the green woods <br /> In the orchard, too, <br />Leaflets are growing <br /> Every thing so new. <br /> <br />May, May, May <br /> May, May, May, <br />May, May, May <br /> Is that all that I can say. <br /> <br />May day is coming <br /> May day is here, <br />The very happiest day <br /> Of all the glad new year. <br /> <br />Call me early, Mother <br /> Call me early, pray. <br />For we must crown the King, <br /> The King, and Queen of May.<br /><br />Della Hodgson James<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/may-day-ditty/
