Chemistry Class

Now it seems they see that Chemistry Is much more worse than pythagoras and trigonometry. That they have to deal with questions Much difficult than balancing equations. And they have to master the periodic table While no one cares if they are able. And they have to master protons and neutrons, Not to leave out anions and ations. And to speak of the Avogadro's number; That they have to master before September... And still they gazed. And still the wonder grew, That one small head should carry all it knew. Then a wind stirred the tree By the school dance hall; Sunrise struck the water Of the fountain's fall. And a bird broke the silence Laughing at it all.
