Happy Ayyam-i-Ha!

The name Ayyam-i-Ha, or literally the Days of the letter H, signifies the so called intercalary days within the B.E. Calendar. this calendar has 19 months, each 19 days, making 361 days. The remaining 4 days (or 5 days in leap years) are designated as days of good cheer and celebration:
"It behoveth the people of Baha, throughout these days, to provide good cheer for themselves, their kindred and, beyond them, the poor and needy, and with joy and exultation to hail and glorify their Lord, to sing His praise and magnify His Name."

Here are a couple of greetings I have made in the past years in honor of this momentous occasion:

Here are some pictures for your enjoyment.
