Dearest, darling Math:

I sing an ode to thee;

'Math, O Math, why hast thou abandoned me on this
Cold and windswept hilltop?
For I am tired of differentials and
bemoan the lack of round numbers
in mine small, uncertain answers.
For 'certes, I am in need of thee
of thy guiding equal signs in mine life.
Of integrals, shy and virtuous,
modest and chaste, on mine worksheet.
Without them, all is lost, lost i cry.

O Math, do not leave me to wander fruitlessly in this barren valley,
love's labour lost,
for thought is free, and thought is good;
but what is thought without the sweet scent of eraser shavings and pencil lead?
Unlock the secrets of the ruler;
whisper the codes of complex numbers,
sing the song of the sine and cosine into mine ever yielding ear;
Permit me to share in the knowledge of numbers,
the beauty of sequence, series, sigma!

Math, O Math, why hast thou left me on this cold and windswept hillside?
I hear thine footfalls in the abacus,
I see thine genius in the french curve,
I dream thine magic in the mystery of Maclaurin's,
but why, I ask thee, why art thou so elusive, so quick and so fleet?

I wish to understand thee;
To read each inequality,
trace each matrice with mine fingers,
walk with plane vectors and confer with each individual function;
I would measure thine graph,
from corner to corner,
Uncover each intercept, each minimum and maximum...

And yet, and yet, each time, you dodge me,
disappear, vanish beneath that shroud of secrecy,
and thus you leave me,
standing on this cold and windswept hilltop.'

--Yue Lin
