If you want to read some more poetry, Diane and Mimi of
Messymimi's Meanderings write wonderful, funny,
thought-provoking, ingenious and honestly well written verse. Go and
read.
Karen of
Baking in a Tornado
has joined us in this crazy pursuit, and promises us at least a poem a month -
may we hope for more - and today se´he just has to participate, and write us a pi(e)!
SpikesBestMate
often publishes a nice verse in the comments, and helps out at topic
supplying.
Jenny at
Procrastinating Donkey
who has been a faithful particimant, is taking a break due to her husband's recent passing from
this world. Let's continue to send warm thoughts, good energy, and lots of
prayers her way.
I have something more to ask of you: If you read this and the
poetry of others, would you please leave a comment. Half - if not more - the
fun of these challenges is receiving the responses of others.
Actually Pi (π) day was yesterday 3.14 in English notation. And I know that maths and poems do not mix well. Bear with me.
3.14 and so on,
I cannot remember,
the row is so long.
But give me some flour
Some butter and milk
and also an hour
I'll bake you a pie
with a circumference
of r times 2 Pi.

Smiling. I rarely eat pies, but can bake them. Maths makes my head hurt, though the rest of my family revel in it.
SvarSletThat is a fabulous poem! I love Maths and stitched a Pi card several years ago.
SvarSletI am slightly disappointed that the date only works in the US though. In most of the world we have to wait for 22nd July which is 22/7 which is also Pi!
Here's the post for the card: http://comehappydancewithme.blogspot.com/2011/03/14-tor-rhuann-pi-day.html
Excellent - you managed a seamless Maths and Pies poem; and short and sweet, too. I'm impressed!
SvarSletMaths and baking DO mix! Yummy!
SvarSletWonderful!
SvarSletI wished I had to eat during Pi day. But I can't bake at all.
SvarSletGood poem, it was fun to read.
Have a lovely day.
