Since the middle ages, even before the birth of Christ this spring celebration has been around Europe and later America.
Celebrate Flora, the Goddess of Flowers. Put up a maypole and wind it around with colored streamers.
As a child I remember weaving paper basket and filling them with wild flowers and hanging them on neighbor's door knobs. Then we rang the bell and ran away before we were seen.
Great fun and joyous way to celebrate spring.
HAPPY MAY DAY!
