Current theme: A whole swarm of M's

M is for Makuahine, Makuakane
Makuahine
Hawaiian word for 'Mother'
Warm enlightenment
(pronounced Mah-Koo-Ah-Hee-Nay)
Makuakane
Hawaiian word for 'Father'
Solid foundation
(pronounced Mah-Koo-Ah-Kah-Nay)
M is for Metamorphoses
Poem collection
By the Roman poet, Ovid

Speak against Augustus?
M is for Michelle
My sister of blood
One of the three that drives me
Our backs to the sun
