Line Count:22


Eleven twos are twenty-two
Or so mathematicians say
Twenty-two ones are twenty-two
I discovered that today.

1, 2, 11 and 22 are factors
And 22 is a composite number
It's not 'prime', does it care
I wonder?

Two more than a score
Two less than a couple of dozen
The number 22
Isn't the age of my cousin.

But what am I jawing about?
Let's celebrate what's great
The number twenty-two
In relation to a date.

September 1, 2000,
Is when the greatest site
In the world got online
And it has proved its might.

Twenty-two years! Standing ovation!
All the members - enjoy the celebration!
