The Poet and the Physicist
A pen tis' stride of mystery,
His search for truth eternity,
Lost in worlds so beyond,
No point of return did all warn'd,
Tread he bravely by this sea,
Forward he gazed to infinity,
But lonely be, was he not's,
In his pen and his the thoughts,
Held his hand and walked in bliss’t,
The curious mind, a physicist,
Together with they trekked this new

The Physicist and the Mathematician

Crazy physicist! So, you can
put a man on the moon?
Ooh! I have a new problem!
Calculate the trajectory of my soul
