The Mayfly: Insect of the month of May
Rainbow on Wings in the Night
Dr Abe V Rotor
The mayfly (Ephemera vulgata) lives for just a few hours, hence it is called
Ephemerid, (Order Ephemerida). Its life cycle is mainly spent in water as naiad.

The night lies awake with a dim light,comes a companion in flightwith wings of rainbow burning bright-what a magnificent sight! ~
NOTE: Compose a song about this beautiful insect, with the verse as lyrics. Recommended as lullaby or romantic song. The verse may be modified as Refrain to give freedom for the composer to add his own. ~
