Physics Class

You're tired of studying the spring? 
Rise above that and learn to swing.
It's oscillatory motion, you bum, 
The science of the pendulum.

Good one! My physics teachers let students jump out of upper floor onto mat down below to measure speed with a ticker tape..no parental permission. The loud voice in me said “no”

Swing? A type of dance I haven't tried. Your poem is fun and lively.

Hello David, your witty take on physics class brought a smile! The playful rhymes and casual tone make the concepts of springs and pendulums feel fun and approachable. You deftly employ wordplay to transform dry material into an entertaining quip. This lighthearted piece is a delightful way to engage students and make learning stick. Clever and charming! - Blessings, My Friend, Daneil

Thanks Daniel! I was good at math, but my second quarter of college physics threw me, and my astronomy class too. For some reason, I can remember answering a professor's question correctly, saying, "emits a photon" - but I can't remember the question lol.
