Albert Einstein, a Maverick

ALBERT EINTEIN


The great soul who changed
The way we looked at ‘Nature’
With strange, mind-boggling concepts.

Space, time and  even  science
Never looked  the same, after him.
Earth-shaking results followed.

He was not a mere maverick, but a maverick of mavericks

Congrats on your win in my contest! I especially enjoyed some of the internal rhyme scheme (changed, strange). Earth shaking indeed! Thank you again for entering my contest and I am glad you enjoyed the write! Cyndi
