If only more people could see mathematics like this, especially that dreaded word “algebra”. The letters and symbols find each other, regroup, and tell you something new and often surprising. As with writing it is sometimes the physical arrangement of the symbols and sometimes the ideas revealed, jumping out in surprising ways. And when it gets messy and inelegant the feeling comes “this isn’t going anywhere”, and it’s time to crumple it up and start afresh.

This spoke to me as a man, a dad and a writer. That letter on the page … it can be a lonely place. But love makes great things possible. And when they’re together, look where letters can take us. This is the perfect read to end my day.

What a lovely, inventive poem, Lora 😀 Really enjoyed it! It also brought to mind the amazing, new picture book by William Joyce: THE NUMBERLYS. Have you see it yet? I think everyone should see it! 🙂

You may also like one I wrote that’s in the same vein about the written word 🙂

  Hi Donna. Thank you for your kind words. I have not heard of that book but that wont be the case for long lol. WORDS will be introduced as an animation in my next post – https://wordsonalimb.com/2015/02/24/to-build-or-destroy-the-power-of-words/ I’m excited about it. I’d love to hear what you think.

Letter translates to Akshara in Sanskrit, meaning that which is indestructible and limitless. Like the words in your poem, may the letter ‘e’ roll on in endless permutations and combinations to enliven, enlighten, edify and enrich lives everywhere. Best…
