I used to be a morris dancer.
I have danced the sun up over Cape Cod, and out here next to the wiccans celebrating something else at the same time, and I’ve frequently come out to cheer on those who were dancing. I love the song Hal and Tow. I like the version Oyster Band does, I like the versions the local morris side sings, and any other version I’ve heard.
I have a theme for May, but I’m not telling what it is. Guess, in the comments section, and I’ll send you your choice of postcard. Even if you get it wrong!
Looks like a fleur to me!
Say, I’ve got a good friend who’s involved in the whole Morris scene. She recently sent a list of performances/events…want me to pass it along to you?

That’s a dogwood, so how about plants with animal names? (Fits with Wake Robin Morris, too.) Could be a fun theme for those who like to play with visual puns.
After reading this, I’ve had “Hal and Tow” going through my head all morning….

Pretty for May Day. Looks like morning dew evaporating from the bud. Nice!

Love it all.
But especially the morris dancing.
I think I just wet my pants.
