honey-sweet may.
“at last came the golden month of the wild folk–
honey-sweet May, when the birds come back,
and the flowers come out,
and the air is full of the sunrise scents and songs of the dawning year.”

was nothing more than prettiness.”

JULY 3: THE START OF THE DOG DAYS OF SUMMER
“dog days” originally referred to the period of the summer
when sirius, the dog star rose each day around the same time as the sun.
