Triangle

Geometry's so complicated
It is somewhat overrated.
Parallelograms amuse,
Trapeziums confuse,
But if you dangle 
This triangle,
I bet you’ll
get the
point

I loved geometry and mathematical equations all throughout my school years... especially as timed brain teasers, lol.... Magge this is a great Nonet in form imagery and flow. I thank you for sharing the read. God's Love and Many Blessings, Always, Adell
