Run with the idea while hot;

For a pie-in-the-sky, it is not.

PHI POEM – INSPIRED BY THE GOLDEN RATIO © 22 July 2021
Phi (f 1.618033988749895…) is most often pronounced fi as in ‘fly’. 
The golden ratio is about 1.618, and is represented by the Greek letter phi, f. That is, (a + b) ÷ a = a ÷ b. These elements inspired the design of the Phi poem. 

The spiral pattern created from the golden ratio is also called the golden spiral. The Fibonacci spiral is related to but not identical to the golden spiral. ‘The golden spiral has constant arm-radius angle and continuous curvature, while the Fibonacci spiral has cyclic varying arm-radius angle and discontinuous curvature.’* 

In the 1800s, the German mathematician, Martin Ohm, called the special number 1.618 golden, likely because it has always existed in mathematics. Further back in time, it was even described as divine because of its frequency in the natural world. The golden spiral symbol has inspired countless people throughout history. It’s been associated with the fundamentals of life, spirituality, and creation. Furthermore, the Fibonacci sequence was the inspiration for a poetic form in its own right.

The © Phi poem is a 5-line syllabic poem with a rhyme scheme, invented by Suzette Richards in 2021. The 4th line should enhance the concluding word (in caps), for example, ‘PHI’, by using any number of poetic devices at your disposal. In my poem, Golden Spiral, I pun pi (p). Presented centred on the page.
 
Rhyme: a1 + b; a2; a3; b; x. (L1: a = an internal rhyme that cross rhymes with L2 & L3.)

Syllabic format of first 3 lines: 1 + 6; 1; 8. L4 & L5 are any number of syllables.
