Beltane is a Celtic festival that marks the beginning of summer and is celebrated by many people around the world on May 1. It's a time of renewal, fertility, and the coming of the light, and it's often associated with bonfires, Maypoles, and various springtime celebrations.
In the merry month of May,
When the world is in a sway,
And the flowers all in bloom,
Beltane nixes winter gloom!
