MAY DAY

MAY  DAY

When I was a little girl there were two things I loved about May 1st.  One was that on that day my mama let me go barefoot for the first time in the year.  No matter how warm it got in April or how hard I begged, she would always  say," No. It will make make you sick, you have to wait until May."

So when May 1st came around, no matter how cold it was I went barefooted and Oh, how good it felt to my winter tender feet to walk on that new spring grass.
