    Description:
       My mother, my grandmother and my stepfather are all astrophysicists. So, since a very early age everyone was telling me to become a physicist too. I wrote this poem to make my parents give up trying to make me fascinated by science. It didn't work, though. But at least it made them laugh.

    They sit in their offices,
    Closing the door,
    They stare at the ceiling,
    And then at the floor,

    Then vaguely they wonder,
    How nice it would be,
    If they were like Newton,
    Or Marie Curie,

    I think it is strange,
    That the world's explanations,
    They twist and they form,
    To non-linear equations,

    They're writing their papers,
    And their careful diction,
    Is drawing its weapons,
    And murdering fiction,

    And when they are looking,
    At stars in the night,
    So smugly they're saying,
    "They're gas and not light!"

    Although for most scientists,
    Strange it must seem,
    I prefer not to know,
    But to guess and to dream

      Well spoken, lovely lady! This is a delightful ode and comparison of the arts to the sciences! I loved it! You have placed in an excellent structure, with a delightful rhyme scheme and story line! Great work!

    ps: please put your photo back! I liked it much better than your present avatar!
