This brings back memories of 'May Day' in elementary school for me. I was wondering about this line:
they’d gather ‘round and pole put down,
Why the 'and', wouldn't it sound better and more accurate as:
they’d gather ‘round a pole put down,
Also, this poem may be a bit 'comma-tose' from the overuse of the punctuation mark.
However, I just realized this is in Miscellaneous, so you may disavow any or all of the above.
