[Mpls] May Day Parade and Festival

[Svattheriver at aol.com]

For the past 27 years I have been a part of the May Day Parade and Festival. 
For most of those years I have had the great pleasure of bringing the Sun 
across Powderhorn Lake which brings us spring and The tree of life. It was an 
amazing day with crickets and drums and musicians laying on their backs playing in 
the middle of the street at Bloomington and Lake... and puppets and kids and 
zany floats. 

Who would be so foolish to parade these giant paper mache dreams through the 
heart of the city?
 Into the wondrous Possible we dance.
Thank you Heart of the Beast.

When the truth was lost, the sky was dark and foreboding, but we learn and 
remember and again call for the sun...The clouds part for the sun to shine and 
bring the sun ships across the lake.
Impeccable timing for this strange and marvelous day.
Thanks to all who built, danced, watched and sung... we see the green 
returning.

Thank you to the blue river, the turtle, the crickets, leaping frogs.... and 
the many fools.

Thanks, 
Scott Vreeland  Seward
