THE MONTH OF JUNE

 

                                 


      

June was most likely be named after the Roman goddess Juno, patroness of marriage and the well-being of women. Also, “juventis” is Latin for youth.


  

June is the 6th month of the Julian and the Gregorian calendars.  The month of June brings bouquets of roses and other beautiful flowers, love, and marriage, I was a June bride, and delicious fruits and vegetables.  

 

                                            It is the month of June

                                            The month of love and roses

                                             When pleasant sights salute the eyes

                                             And pleasant scents the noses.   

                                             (N.P. Willis - 1807-1867)


On June 20th is the summer solstice in the northern hemisphere and Fathers’ Day.

 

As we say in Greek: καλό μήνα  (have a good month)
