The cry of joy at the return of the beautiful warm weather, celebrated by Medioeval poets such as Poliziano, can be heard echoing its ancient tradition. A special bush or branch of roses used to be placed in front of houses as a sign of good wishes or as a request for the hand of a maiden. May is the month that symbolizes the rebirth of life or of the renewal of the seasons. In cooking it is the month for root vegetables and herbs, which play a lead role.
