Love for Math Being Randomly Expressed Ode to Math Some may call me a nerd for it Others may

roll their eyes But when I tell the world My love is math, I know what I say is true.

Through the complex words interfused with wild numbers Confuse my slow little brain And causes my frustration and anger to start steaming Outside my head I know that once I find The correct answer The wave of satisfaction And feeling of achievement Is irreplaceable and unique All in its own way

Ode to Hard Math Problems A hard problem always offers you Two paths to choose from One in which you become a coward And run away from the challenge As far as you can

Another path offers you a predicament Yet it provides with a prestigious reward

For the past 13 years of my life, Ive been choosing the first path I avoided difficult situations And ran away from challenging problems Now, as I reflect upon the past, I realized That I needed to build courage to withstand The various obstacles life will sustain you with So, with this new perspective, I greet challenges with a smile Because I know that I will be facing times More difficult than the present.
