Memorising formulae and equation
always gave me tension.
Finding the algebraic x and y,
left me wondering why?
Decimals or fractions
would elicit no reaction!
Trigonometry and geometry
rhymed with only the “metry”
Factors and calculus
left me nauseous!
Math was a conundrum
which always left me so glum!
In response to the daily prompt : Conundrum

looks like a lot many bloggers are allergic to maths… and I would include science as well in my case…
Perhaps the right brain is more active for the dreamy bloggers…

I had always loved Maths, but my feelings changed to quite what you’ve written about after tenth standard. So in a way I could relate to all you’ve penned so wonderfully.
Keep up the good work Radhika 🙂
