Randomling 22: Newton's Poultice

Apple falls from tree
Newton (ouch!) takes notice
Comes up with law of gravity
while wearing a poultice
on the solstice
Form: Verse


Premium Member INERTIA and ISAAC NEWTON

So restless was Isaac Newton
with physics laws had so much fun
Defining the inertia of truth
shows he was quite a sleuth

Isaac Newton,
the illustrious Briton,
saw farther than others when the famous apple fell.
So, what gravitates us we all know well.

Premium Member Newton and the Infinitesimal Nut

I thought of all things great and small -
what happens to an apple or a ball.
Maybe, I'll try calculus.  But
can it crack the infinitesimal nut?

Newton’s Rotten Luck

Sir Isaac Newton, so great,
Had the apple been rotten and late,
No physics would have been discovered yet,
No derivations would have ever been set.

Gravity

An apple 
Fell from a tree
And struck Newton 
On the head,
Now we understand gravity.

Isaac's Downfall

Sir Isaac Newton
Discovered gravity
As a good excuse 
For his apple scrumping activity

Premium Member Poor Mrs Newton

Poor Mrs. Newton had two kids.
One found gravity.  He was bright - 
while little Fig hit the skids 
and was eaten in one bite - 
different as black and white.

Sir Isaac Newton

Sir Isaac once sat in the shade,
When an apple fell, so he swayed,
He thought, "What a sight,
This force must be right,"
And thus gravity’s laws were portrayed.

Premium Member Famous Briton

There was once a great man named Newton
Apple fell on this famous Briton
Lest flash of gravity
Escapes brain’s cavity
To cover head he put his hat on.

An Anachronistic Poem On Apple

Reminds many of Adam
Some of anatomy
Some of botany
Some of iPhone
Some of Steve Jobs
Some of etymology,
But Newton of the why
And that’s phenomenology!

Ouch

Sir Isaac Newton
didn't think gravity was fun,
when at the tree he did slump,
from an apple that caused a lump.

Premium Member The Apple Fell

Long time ago there was a great Briton
Grand scientist called Isaac Newton
Apple fell on calculus
Gravity laws he gave us
Helpless Adam missed the fruit to bite on.

Gravity

Gravity
Real force spinning
A weight on my knees
Veritable science nonfiction
In a moment the apple fell, Newton noticed
Trusted source of orbiting satellite's permanence
Youth's nemesis

The apple hit Sir Isaac Newton on his head

There was once a great scientist named Newton,
apple fell on the head of famed Briton.
       Lest the spark of gravity
       escapes from brain’s cavity,
all the time he put his thinking hat on.

Premium Member Sir Isaac Gravity

Sir Isaac Newton was a cantankerous old soul But more importantly, was known for a different role When the apple fell It's gravity he telled His fame has lasted four hundred years or more

Ex-slaver and minister John Newton
faced constant calamities, yet still escaped ruin.
The lyrics of “Amazing Grace” show he greatly was relieved
when he wrote of his conversion “the hour I first believed.”

Show us!
Tell us,
Ephemeral
Professor,
How
Eternity
Never
Was.
How
Arrogant!
Why'd
Kepler
Insist, and
Newton, too, on
God?

(Goes to show, that even Hawking's great mind made mistakes!)
