Equation to my poetry

She lived in a world of numbers, where every question had a clear answer.
Her mind moved in straight lines, solving equations with precision,
While mine wandered through the forests of words,
Twisting and turning in metaphors, 
searching for meaning where 
none was certain.

She could balance an equation in seconds,
But my poetry, with its tangled emotions and ambiguous

Premium MemberMathematics of Life

Life’s equation works in a different way,
each moment is accounted for as is each day,
one be one, as we pass through time’s sieve,
what remains in the end is charity we give.

balance in the bank does not follow you,
friends and relatives will soon bid adieu,
all that wealth does not matter anymore,
your values are morals to settle

Power of Words

My maths teacher said I'll be nothing, 
Algebra and calculus caught me dozing. 
My Chem teacher condemned me too, 
For chemicals sent me straight to the loo. 
In physics I was called dumb, 
For machines made my mind numb. 

Nothing but words excites my passion. 
Lyrics and sonnets the real temptation. 
Dickens and Ng?gi I

Premium MemberI Wish I Loved Maths

To bed just after one
 Awake by half-past three
The words in my head
Swirl around and torture me

All I did was have an idea
A simple story in my head
Now condemned to hard labour
Chiselling pictures, I cannot shed

The characters stare while I slumber
Like a child’s scary dream
They poke and they prod me
Sit in my mind, an endless

Maths Pleiades

Mathematics is tough
Multiplication hard
Mental sums mind boggling
Maths theorems are worse
Mind confused in exam
Maths should be optional
Majority agree

Home Schooling Mum

Welcome to Home School today,
A typical mum might say,
We'll start with Maths, okay?
First, I have an empty glass,
There is 0 wine here for a blast,
Then I'll pour in half, 
Before I top it up,
Now I have 1 whole wine to sup,
Home School does need wine o'clock,
For Mums, not kids, quite a shock,
Stop laughing at Mum,

Men Do On the Beach

I wonder how I’d feel  from day to day
If I knew not prime numbers and their play
If I’d never heard of “e”  and “pi”
And still believed  that God lived in the sky

Even though I’ve not  done maths for years
I fall into  brown studies next to squares
Ellipses please me  with

on calculator
three plus two might equal one
the downfall of haste

If you insist on one fast fix
Three plus two could become six!

Cold Vs Maths

I was suffering from extreme cold,
And my Maths teacher told,
You’ll be giving a test,
And you’ll have to be your best.

The cold is to be blamed,
As the barrier of my life,
Of course, it is to be blamed,
And I’ll have to strife.

Will this headache stop?
Will it stop affecting my body’s top?
Oh, I’ll have to surmount,
And clean the

Premium MemberA Maths Class Exam

"How easy this maths exam will be,
How simple the maths to be done?"
You understood exactly what the teacher had taught,
Had taught before the test had begun.

On the board it was: ten plus two is… 
And then, what’s ten minus four.
On the board it was easy to see how it was solved, 
But that was prior,

I Love Maths

We were first introduced at the prime age of 5
at a time when my interest was soon multiplied
and every addition to my knowledge of your ways
made it exponentially clear this was not just a phase
and any attempt to divide up my focus
or subtract my attention with daft hocus pocus
was an infinite waste of time far

Nothing Like Maths

A subject like it,
can make everyone's brain fit.

Its difficult though,
if eager to learn,
would perform in a good flow.

Addition, Subtraction, Algebra,
How to perform it?
A simple but a long formula.

My sum is wrong when I don't wanna study,
and when unable to solve,
my face becomes red like a cherry.

Numbers go round and round in my brain,
I am in
