Holiday - Dance About the Maypole

“Come lasses & lads, get leave of your dads, And away to the Maypole hie, For every he has got him a she, And the fiddler's standing by.” ~Anonymous. "If there's a bustle in your hedgerow don't be alarmed now. It's just a spring clean for the may-queen..." ~'Stairway To Heaven', lyrics by Led Zeppelin (1971). "And the rivulet in the flowery dale 'ill merrily glance & play, For...mother, I'm to be Queen o' the May." ~The May Queen ~Alfred Lord Tennyson (1809-1892) Victorian Poet Laureate
