a: Thyme ~
b: a medicine chest in a plant
What: "Thyme is like a medicine chest in a plant - it's very antiseptic and was used for teas during Victorian times. I still make a thyme and sage tea for a sore throat and also put thyme in most of my soups, including the Bible soup in a jar recipe I'm sharing today."

METAMIA is a free database of analogy and metaphor. Anyone can contribute or search. The subject matter can be anything. Science is popular, but poetry is encouraged. The goal is to integrate our fluid muses with the stark literalism of a relational database. Metamia is like a girdle for your muses, a cognitive girdle.
