These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

April Showers, May Flowers, and June Bowers

That April is the time of rain
to water pretty blooms,
we know this fact so sweetly plain,
and open window rooms.

Then May's the time blooms thrive so much
to color lives with glee.
We decorate with a joyous touch
with smiles for you and me.

For June's days filled with bride's bedecked
and churches flowery splay.
The sweetest honey bees have nect-
perfume her joyous day.

If April showers bring May flowers
for June's wedding bowers,
then what may be the sight's we see
for all the future knowers?

April, May, and June may sing
a sibling trio true
for wedded bliss doth often bring
blest children, who are new.
