Number Love
My pal Alex prefers the primes,
while Jane likes multiples of eight.
Major Tom votes nine, Jim 13,
and Liz thinks that 17’s great.
I’m a true Fibonacci fan;
Jill most probably loves them all,
but young Gavin’s GOLDEN BIRTHDAY
made him feel a hundred feet tall
(I hope)!

This just shows that absolutely anything can get you thinking about writing a poem. Alex Church started a FB conversation the other day by stating his fondness for prime numbers. I don’t know what prompted him – hopefully something delightful that was uttered by a child. It inspired me to consider all things numerical. What fun!
