Best Mathematics Poems

Mental stretching, the required sacrifice
Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division
To all exercises, these four are the basics
Hell on paper but sweet in its understanding
Equations and formula, serving as raw products
Mastering the existence of numbers to gain its wisdom
Arithmetics also in a graphical representation
Then its technicalities in...

Multitude of numbers,
  Multiply, add, divide,
    Minus, percentage, graphs,
      Metres, centimetres,
        More trigonometry,
          Merge with geometry,
   Magic of...

Converging forces, volatile and caustic
 Magnetism drew us two poles together
    south on south
Defying physics ,advice, and common sense
  We tempted fate and dove in
    ...in straight jackets
Your unabashed, uninhibited way drove me wild
  Impetuous like a...

can't even fart anymore
without kicking up a hurricane
halfway around the Earth
according to reports this has occurred
at a great loss of life and mind
within minutes of the methane
the dominoes began to rumble
and poor Flash who was
merely greeting the morning sun
became history's first flatomaniac
Flash was burly with...

Math, the realm of life, let's
Multiply all pleasures
Minus entire sorrows
Manage total tie-ups
Measure mentalities
Matrix adventures and
Minimize kindred’s flaws.

My mind's myriad fears
multiplied and marred my
mirth and made me meek but
mettle marches to make
methods malleable,  
minus out fears to gain
mastery over Math.

During my elementary, high school and college educational quest,
I struggled to do my very best on every mathematical test.
I was a "B" student in English, History and Art as I recall,
But I never mastered the mysteries of mathematics at all!

Basic arithmetic such as division and...

Pessimists call Maths, abyss of a subject,
A subject invented to detest their brains,
A subject of arithmetical errors,
Errors, that need a heap of stint to complete the puzzle.
But to the Poet, I call it,
A common mistakes subject,
Like the Romeo and Juliet miscalculation,
That can only be nursed,
Long...

As air and leaf litter are substrate for the bird.
And what makes a human. Separation from the substrate.
Believing the substrate and the subject are separately defined.

Whatever gives the poem form - three lines - is the substrate.
Things will be said. The signer and the seer...

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...

The Mathematics Plague

By Elton Camp

It’s a fact of modern life we must face
Mathematics holds an important place

Arithmetic, basic algebra, geometry too
All are important skills for me and you

Of the people, only a tiny percent require
Advanced algebra, trig, calculus or higher

An educational development to abhor
Is to...

“Is 'Mathematics...not only [a] Truth,
     but [a] supreme beauty—a beauty cold
and austere, like that of sculpture [uncouth
     to men for whom this concept is too bold],
without appeal to any part of our weaker nature,

*** SIMPLY ***


Simply

The elements unite
Linked and willing,
    In no prescribed order

The route’s lay swirls
Through 
Our simple souls,
Appearing still
    But
Bleeding subtly
Along the outstretched
Fibers of the cosmic fabric

God breathes ~
His effects
In seemingly
Simple 
Measures
  — His music and mathematics —
Annotate
The dances...

Ellipse, evolute, vertex and curve,
Humdrum circle or ricochet swerve
Astroids or cusps, arcs or sectors;
What have those got to do with vectors?
Curvature, cone, Cartesian plane…
Oval, deltoid… what’s in a name?
Geoid oscillation, pedal, radial, rose…
What on earth do I know of those?
Hypocycloid, cruciform, Sierpinski carpet…
Inverse tangent or...
