we should have named her something else
Poly Math wanted to know how bumblebees can fly
they are so Rubenesque and yet, they buzz off daily
she researched it because it was so curious to her
there are many theories, but no definitive answers.
Why? Because we are not yet able to speak with bees.
What do we have to do to talk to bees?
Poly Math looked it up in twelve reference books
She also googled it, but alas, there was no reply.
Asking her echo was no help either.
“I do not understand the question,” the device said.
Whose voice is that? Poly Math wondered.
She was able to find this out, and felt satisfied.
For about six seconds. Then she heard a trill.
Was that a robin, cardinal, crow, wren or what?
She began listening to bird noises, so she might know.
Poly Math’s curiosity has always led the way.
Has brought her where she is today.
Degrees in anthropology, biology, zoology,
earth science, math, and psychology.
