Poem

I was an adequate student in elementary school…I learned my basic math…
never realizing how addition, subtraction, multiplication and division would help me on life’s path.

I knew, when it came to money and a budget, they would help me along the way…
but they were only numbers…other than that…what good were they?

Then…as I grew into a teen…an adult…a husband, a dad…a granddad…
I began to realize my life is happier when to it…friends and family I add.

It is basic math really…but emotionally applied:
When we share our love and happiness with the friends and family we’ve added…
our love and happiness are multiplied!

And when a friend or family member is subtracted…a sadness for which we are usually unprepared…the weight of our sorrow becomes a little lighter…when it’s divided…when it’s shared.

So now I understand how basic math in life totally relates to me….
which means I’ve come full circle…
Wait!…isn’t that geometry?

Yes, I never dreamed all those years ago…as I started down life’s path…
some of its secrets were being taught to me in the guise of basic math.

Which makes me wonder…if I had understood, then, the secrets basic math conveyed…
perhaps I would have been a better student…
and earned a better grade!
