May First

It is the first of May.

Images race through my mind: Maypoles, flowers, Beltane fires, love, Spring, new life, newly born critters racing about on new legs or crying to be fed, leaving bundles of flowers at our neighbor's door and running off...

Castor elected himself to represent all of the critters and wish everyone a happy May Day.

Happy May Day to you, Kat.

Unfortunately, since reading the book "Tess of the Durbervilles" I can't ever think about May Day w/o thinking about the tragedy that happens when the young heroine was just too alluring in her white May Day dress and red ribbon...
