A limerick for wdc's 12th birthday!
One and two might add to three
Standing side to side makes twelve, you see.
Contrary wise tis twenty-one
And no, I am not yet quite done--
Still playing--mathematically!

Two times one is two
two minus one is one, but do
try to divide get still two or a half
(There's a reason I never did well in Math!)
Exponentially mixed you get one or two, too!

One minus two gets negative
square the result and get positive!
Kind of like life we add and subtract;
give to others, receive a sum back.
It really is all relative!
