I think it would be great read to a crowd at a slam poetry event! It also would be a fun way to turn math stories into detective work.

I giggled at “but realize / it is 0 of 2’s business.” Love this clever way of telling parents of adult children to let their kids live their own lives. My heart filled w/ love reading “1 that respects 2 / is the hardest math of all.” That is so true. You must share this w/ your children. I’d love to revisit this poem in your blog Tuesday. ❤️+❤️=(❤️❤️)Thank You.<br />—GlendaMaureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08404917167112072640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8728867573837168357.post-52023158058645881992020-04-24T09:12:34.421-07:002020-04-24T09:12:34.421-07:00Angie, from Sarah Donovan's 30 Days of Poetry ...Angie, from Sarah Donovan's 30 Days of Poetry website:<br />Sometimes numbers can be just as beautiful as words, if not more so, and you have proven this here. I really like that I understand everything haha. And I really like “but realize it is 0 of 2s business – I appreciate my parents never nagging me about “if/when” I will have kids, so thank you. A lovely numerical poem 🙂Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08404917167112072640noreply@blogger.com
