goodbye may day

dear may,
though you have brought in your wake not much more than grimaces, emptiness, reminders of freakishness, isolation, and self-doubt - i still love you.

Because in the darkness of the melancholy month of may, i did find booklings, myself, and the respect for some beautiful women (not to mention a gorgeous new apartment and some not terribly annoying neighbors :) , new friends in arizona, a sassy new haircut, a gorgeous new painting gracing my walls...so, maybe it wasn't soooo bad...BUT)

i can't say i am sad to see you go.

because my dear may, i am on the upswing...and june is the happy escort of my newly restored, (but just recently found) old friend, joy. June, meet joy. I think you will get along just smashingly.

so let's talk, june. these are my (s)expectations: (that makes no sense, but i just love that word)
lightheartedness
solitude in my social bank
giddy giggles over little trinkets
new jewelery
frivolity
and finally,
c.e.l.e.b.r.a.t.i.o.n.
(which must include some rosé, a tight dress, and heavy doses of madonna on the dance floor)

may, you have had your due purpose and i will cherish you, but thank god i feel BEETTTTEEERRR.

sorry you had to witness that.

but, there's
always
next
year.

The upswing is coming, in the cool breeze that breaks the muggy air, the tiniest red maple seeds waiting to fly away, and the longest sip of rosé on a sunset soaked beach. I'm glad you're back my friend.

Ditto to what Umber spoke but when it comes down to it...little i is glad to be friended to you.
