POEM STARTER

Submitted by Miss Magnifique

Write an ode to something that others perceive as silly, but matters a lot to you.

An ode is a type of lyrical poem that typically addresses a particular subject in a positive and glorifying light.

An Ode To Right-Angles

If there's something that especially pleases me, It's when the two lines of a triangle make 90 degrees. Less than that might be called "acute", But it's the perfect 90 that's really a beaut!

For obtuse angles, I don't have the time, They're at their worst when they're almost a straight line! God proves her existence by leaving us clues, And there's no clue clearer than the hypotenuse.

I hope you'll forgive me if I come across as rude, But the beauty of right-angles is rarely understood, Only Pythagorus and I have been left with our mouths agape, At this truly and wonderfully perfect shape!
