Ode to Pi Day
3-point-one-four-one-five-nine
That’s this haunting phrase of mine
It’s a ratio that’s divine
3.14159
***
A) Around the circle, mark the spot
B) Through the center’s lonely dot
Take A to B and you will find
3.14159
***
We’ll celebrate on Saturday*
This ratio in a special way
Like a perfect glass of wine
3.14159
***
When Pi Day goes, I must confess
My weird old life is just a mess 🙂
For then I’ll sit and then I’ll PIne
For 3.14159
***
But SOON, we’ll get to celebrate
That special day – 6/28!
Not JUST two “perfects” will we find
But TWICE this special PI of mine!
*Note: This is the original version of the Verse, written in a year when Pi Day was on a Saturday 🙂
