may neighbor smooth
O Blackbird! sing me something well: While all the neighbors shoot thee round, I keep smooth plats of fruitful ground, Where thou may'st warble, eat and dwell.
running flower may
Read my little fable: He that runs may read. Most can raise the flowers now, For all have got the seed.
soul may persons
The thrall in person may be free in soul
lying fighting may
That a lie which is all a lie may be met and fought with outright, But a lie which is part a truth is a harder matter to fight.
happiness may achilles
It may be we shall touch the Happy Isles, And see the great Achilles whom we knew.
winning perfect may
Courtesy wins woman all as well. As valor may, but he that closes both is perfect.
men self may
I hold it truth, with him who sings To one clear harp in divers tones, That men may rise on stepping-stones Of their dead selves to higher things.
soul mind may
Let knowledge grow from more to more, But more of reverence in us dwell; That mind and soul, according well, May make one music as before, But vaster.
fall may life-is
It may be that no life is found, Which only to one engine bound Falls off, but cycles always round.
sweet past may
The woods are hush'd, their music is no more; The leaf is dead, the yearning past away; New leaf, new life--the days of frost are o'er; New life, new love, to suit the newer day: New loves are sweet as those that went before: Free love--free field--we love but while we may.
life may thee
We love but while we may; And therefore is my love so large for thee, Seeing it is not bounded save by love.
time may time-management
A day may sink or save a realm.
He makes no friends who never made a foe.
true-love pain grief
Oh that it were possible, After long grief and pain, To find the arms of my true love, Around me once again
