Write a Science Haiku for you, for me, for the world
















This is national poetry month - let us make our contribution. It is April and T.S. Elliot penned in The Waste Land: 
APRIL is the cruellest month, breeding
Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing
Memory and desire, stirring
Dull roots with spring rain.


Let us do our mixing and stirring up of memory and desire.


For inspiration:

  1. Watch this video of a science process poem: 
  2. Read and watch the embedded videos in this article from symmetry magazine (Note the quote:Science is inevitable; art is fragile. Without Einstein it may have taken many, many years, and many people working on it, but we still would have come up with his theories. If Beethoven died at age 5, we would not have the sonatas; art is not repeatable.
Here is mine for chemistry:

A tight rope artist 
Walks chemistry equations 
yet she never falls.

And for physics:

Sound is vibration
Changing pressure changing media
Drowning out and delighting.

  2. The heaviest isotope of hydrogen,
    It has one proton, two neutrons,
    And one electron.
    If you forget the mass number is three,
    Use the prefix tri
    You’ll remember the mass,
    And the chemistry test you’ll pass
