Mathematics
I used to say I don’t like math
But today I say I do.
The stars at night like grains of sand
Are as many as a few.
And molecules once were mysteries
Not long ago it seems.
Now I peer inside of them
As if living in a dream.
Where quantum leaps are giant peaks
In atom-smashing realms;
Leading minds in space and time
Where reality rose and fell.
On this road of life from dark to light
Far stranger than its start;
When yesterday’s math was hell on earth
Now it’s beauty, truth and art.
