^An Acutely Obtuse Pythagorean Lyric
Isosceles
was watering
his hypotted-nuse
one day,
When a witty,
wily Pythagorsaurus
wandered out his way.
'A theorem for my hearem, '
Isosceles did say.
'Why Sir, I fear
that you will hear
your roots are very rare.
It seems that they are growing,
but all of them are square.'
'Eureka! '
cried Isosceles,
'Eureka and Eurare!
We must the news deliver
to the house across the square.
To leave a
note for Archimedes,
Who will one day be there,
To tell him why the triangle
turned out to be a square.'
Not only science but mathematics is just an expression of poetry is evident from this creation yours here.Nice one and superb write.
Indeed not! Terrific, and told with inticate rhyme and great humour. 'the triangle turned out to be a square' just another fundamental flaw in the universe exposed.
Hurray! A terrific poem with rhyme at prime with humor at the helm. When poets write Adeline is my favorite poet and I just took it for granted but after reading this poem, I feel the same. ha ha ha a good poem Adeline! Hope you catch up this poem of mine........

A clever story and clever word play. I'm afraid I missed a majority of the puns or allusions. I have a poem in development which you will enjoy. For now check out my poem Prime.
you were right, I so enjoyed reading it... love it! thank you for the comments on my poetry...
You definitely have a certain flair when it comes to poetry and mathematics. Very enjoyable read.
This has it all including time travel or messages for the the future unknown. Acute poem not at all diagonal, as it gets to the point.
This poem has not been translated into any other language yet.
I would like to translate this poem
As a math hater, I still fully enjoyed this. Adeline, you are to be commended for this..(smile)
