Lin Lane Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Human Equation

Sing me a song of a world in which everyone is equal
Read to me from a book of harmony that has a sequel
Tell me a tale of people who live a happy balanced life
Show me faces of men and women untouched by strife

Mathematically, an equation deals with variables and a solution
Environmentally, a well balanced world would have no pollution
Equalizing factors would never be determined by color or age
Every human would be treated alike,  giving no cause for rage

Nature balances our climate; Spring is the time of new birth
Heat of Summer brings the rains, giving life to Mother Earth
Autumn is impartial, displaying fallen leaves in colored hues
Winter paints a cooler world in snow whites and icy blues.

Equations must be balanced, correct if both sides are the same.
Problems must be solved by everyone so peace we can claim.
Variables exist but all factors need values that can be measured.
It's the only way a viable solution will be found and treasured.

Timothy Hicks March 7, 2016 at 10:09 PM This is charming. I would love to read the sequel myself. You did a great job, taking on this equations theme, and turning it into a poem about humanity's problems, and Lin's proposed solutions. Lin Lane March 8, 2016 at 2:41 AM Thanks, Tim, but there'll be no sequel if no one buys the first installment. Hope you're doing well.
