Can blow or breathe, be funnel, or hello. 1 A glass blade or a cut. 2 A question seated. And a proud bird’s neck. 3 Shallow mitten for two-fingered hand. 4 Three-cornered hut on one stilt. Sometimes built so the roof gapes. 5 A policeman. Polite. Wearing visor cap. 6 O unrolling, tape of ambiguous length on which is written the mystery of everything curly. 7 A step, detached from its stair. 8 The universe in diagram: A cosmic hourglass.

Page.boyDetailsAvailable = false; Page.girlDetailsAvailable = true; Page.StartGender = 'girl'; BabyNamer Find the Best Name for Your Baby A B C D ... Z May girlNameId = '26960'; Meaning: Its source is an English expression meaning "The fifth month." Languages: This girl's name is used in English. Nickname For: Margaret and Mary Compound Forms: Hanamay and Williemae Alternative Spellings: Mae and Maye Variant Forms: Mayola Popularity: The name May ranked 472nd in popularity for females of all ages in a sample of the 1990 US Census. This name is highly rated in the 1990 U.S. Census popularity survey of all ages, but after 1960 does not appear in the state data listing the most popular baby names. Narrative: The month of May was named for Maia, the Roman earth goddess. However, the popularity of the name May before the 20th century probably owed more to its use as a short form of the names Matthew and Mary, which led to its use as a surname. It is also a Sanskrit word meaning ''Illusion.'' Miscellaneous May McAvoy 1923 Rose Queen (see list of Tournament of Roses, Rose Bowl Queens

63. The Centaur, A Poem By May Swenson In Centaur Grooves At Lair2000 Go tie back your hair, said my mother and Why is your mouth all green? Rob Roy, he pulled some clover as we crossed the field, I told her. may swenson. http://www.lair2000.net/centaur_poetry/poems/The_Centaur2.html

The Centaur The summer that I was ten - Can it be there was only one summer that I was ten? It must have been a long one then - each day I'd go out to choose a fresh horse from my stable which was a willow grove down by the old canal. I'd go on my two bare feet. But when, with my brother's jack-knife, I had cut me a long limber horse with a good thick knob for a head, and peeled him slick and clean except a few leaves for the tail, and cinched my brother's belt around his head for a rein, I'd straddle and canter him fast up the grass bank to the path, trot along in the lovely dust that talcumed over his hoofs, hiding my toes, and turning his feet to swift half-moons. The willow knob with the strap jouncing between my thighs was the pommel and yet the poll of my nickering pony's head. My head and my neck were mine, yet they were shaped like a horse. My hair flopped to the side like the mane of a horse in the wind. My forelock swung in my eyes, my neck arched and I snorted. I shied and skittered and reared, stopped and raised my knees

Out of the Box Coaching and WORKING WITH THE ENNEAGRAM , Mary R. Bast, Ph.D. ONE: The Lightning The lightning waked me. It slid unde r my eyelid. A black book flipped ope n to an illuminated page. Then insta ntly shut. Words of destiny were being ut- tered in the distance. If only I could make them out! . . . Next day, as I lay in the sun, a symbol for concei ving the universe was scratched on my e yeball. But quickly its point eclipse d, and softened, in the scabbard of my brain. My cat speaks one word: Fo ur vowels and a consonant. He rece ives with the hairs of his body the wh ispers of the stars. The kinglet spe aks by flashing into view a ruby feath er on his head. He is held by a threa d to the eye of the sun and cannot fall into error. Any flower is a per fect ear, or else it

76. Essay On May Swenson's "The Centaur" The Centaur by may swenson is appropriately titled. The poem tells the story of a tenyear-old girl who is obsessed with horses. Using nostalgic reverence http://www.angelfire.com/indie/crazybilly/centaur.html

Essay on May Swenson's "The Centaur" "The Centaur" by May Swenson is appropriately titled. The poem tells the story of a ten-year-old girl who is obsessed with horses. Using nostalgic reverence, the speaker expresses how she is one with the horse. The poem describes a vivid memory of a summer. Throughout the summer, the speaker would prance around on a wodden horse in her yard. However, the wooden horse was much more than that to the girl. To her, the wooden horse was a part of herself. She was not only the horse's rider, but she was also the horse itself. Each day the girl would travel to her "stable," which in reality was only a willow grove. The girl carved a new horse everyday. This action shows how persistent the girl is. Playing with her horse was something more than imagining or pretending. The girl would actually become the horse. She even goes to the extremity of eating clover from the field while she plays with the horse. That wooden horse was capable of doing extraordinary things to her. One cal tell that the speaker adored riding her wooden horse by the descriptions she uses in the poem. She shares many characteristics that a horse possesses. Her hair was like a horse's mane. She states the dust looked lovely as is rose up in the sky from her galloping hoofs. In the ninth and tenth stanzas, the speaker states that "(her) head and (her) neck were shaped like a horse." The speaker also behaves the same as a horse. This part of the poem is the turning point. Her adoration surpasses normality and is transformed into a strange obsession.
