Yesterday was cool and windy. May can be like that in Montana, so I wasn't sure if the white things I saw swirling in the brisk breeze were petals from the blossoms on our apple tree or snow. Upon closer examination, they were blossoms and, since I don't put flowers outside until Memorial Day, no plant life was in danger from the cold. (Although any flowers I buy are always in danger from my "black thumb.") So the title of this post can be interpreted different ways, May in Montana--May Be Spring, a statement. Maybe Spring?, a question. Or May, Be Spring! a command. Since I could not get a decent picture of our "apple blossom snow," I found one on Google Images, like Amazon, they have everything.
May Be Spring
In northern lands
when spring winds blow,
it is a little hard to know
the apple blossoms
from the snow.
