The Waking
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
I feel my fate in what I cannot fear.
I learn by going where I cannot go.
We think by feeling. What is there to know?
I hear my being dance from ear to ear.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Of those so close beside me, which are you?
God bless the Ground! I shall walk softly there,
And learn by going where I have to go.
Light takes the Tree, but who can tell us how?
The lowly worm climbs up a winding stair;
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Great Nature has another thing to do
To you and me; so take the lively air,
And, lovely, learn by going where to go.
This shaking keeps me steady. I should know.
What falls away is always. And is near.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
I learn by going where I have to go.
--Theodore Roethke

Equus
I know about the play and movie but not much about horses. Well, in this case, you need to know about names of famous horses. Here's a quiz that I found while searching for the name of Caligula's horse. Of course, I didn't know that off the top of my head. Am I a classical scholar?
Here's the link to the quiz for Famous Riders and their Horses. How did we do? I got 10 of them right. I've never heard of some of those people and can't believe I missed the Zorro question since I watched it regularly - also Gene Autry, Hopalong Cassidy, Roy and Dale, and Sky King. There's so much I don't remember and odd things that I do. I got these right: #'s 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 15, 18, 19 and guessed correctly for 7 and 12. Can you believe the answer to question #2? Who'd have thought that? I never had a clue.
You want another Trivial Pursuit quiz? If so, which edition: "Know-It-All" or "Pop Culture"?
