Here you go...

30 days has September,
April, June and November.
All the rest have 31
except the second month alone,
To which we 28 assign,
'til Leap Year gives it 29.

There are a lot of variations so here is a website to try http://leapyearday.com/30Days.htm

I think this kind of thing is called a mnemonic ( a little rhyme etc. for remembering something)

30 days hath (has) September, April, June and November.
All the rest have 31, except February
which has 28 days clear
but 29 each leap year!

Thirty days hath September, April, June and November.

All the rest have 31.

Save February, which has 28.

Except in leap year, that's the time
When February's days are 29.
