Quantum Limericks

Zippy

A Disturbance in the Force

As Einstein once said, in summation,
"Velocity is ortho-rotation."
If you speed as you please
Past ninety degrees,
You may may wind up in some strange location.
---------------

Two mesons, one bolder, one shy
Collided while still on the fly.
They coupled with passion
In Baryon fashion,
And gave birth to an offspring named "Psi".

---------------

Three quarks who had learned how to spin
Had opted for drinking and sin.
They went, while quite mellow
To an anti-quark bordello . . .
And never were heard from again!
--------------------

I worry about the disparity
That dwells in a great singularity . . .
Why space becomes time,
And time becomes space,
And light is a bit of a rarity.

---------------------

Hoorah! For the path to salvation.
It sounds like a saintly confection.
Although you must strive,
You'll never arrive.
For the Cosmos keeps changing direction.
 
I like these :)


This came to mind as I read them:


The C's present a conundrum
Is the future where Laura has come from?
If so the past is obscene
The present serene
Consciousness shines as the consummate fulcrum


:P

Glad you like it! How's about some Haiku?
NOTE: I don't always use the 5 - 7 - 5 format. The Japanese syllable (Onji) count isn't exactly the same as we use.

---------------

Word Geese

Words fly to paper
A flock of bedraggled geese
Home from distant lands

---------------------

Sleepy Spring

Awake, drowzy Spring!
Must you slumber so long
In Winter's icy breast?

------------------

Quest

The West wind queries
Each tree and pond and star
But keeps their secret

------------------

Meadowlark

The Meadowlark sings
Of chicks unborn. The bare twig
Shudders in the wind

----------------

Homeless

Ice frames crystal moon
Homeless forms with frozen tears
Flee the heartless wind

I had to read this one twice - and then it hit me! Quite subtle.
