Flower Full Moon
Meanwhile, in Mississauga last night, the sky was clear to view the Flower Full Moon, after an overall cloudy day. In folklore, the full moon in May is known as the flower moon because it occurs as spring blossoms in the Northern Hemisphere. The term was popularized by the Farmer's Almanac, which attributes it to the Algonquin people of North America.

Mojea burgeaponnailo sodanch eta,
Jednam viaj marun amcho xezari
Porot bailea gavan voiche adle ratri
Bolkavant zatali zoma vaddeantlea lokachi
Ani dukhest asle zaite-se dusre xezari.
Burgo asslom aum, auchit vollon nodor moji poddli
Tor tednam disso maka

Chodd dukh maka bogtali.

Pussunk poddlim avem mojinch dukam.

Pois thaun chodd tuzo ugddass eta maka
Kallzan thaun Deu Borem Koruum munntam
Magun bori saud ani bolaiki
