Fibonacci travelled wide <br />to learn from Arab scholars wise, <br />Number tricks and how beside <br />to guess a rabbit warren's size. <br /> <br />1202 he wrote his view <br />that if you start with just one pair, <br />Month's end doubles that to two, <br />the parents and twin babies fair. <br /> <br />Babies take a month to grow <br />but parents still on loving spree, <br />Extra siblings now in tow, <br />at end of month, the numbers three. <br /> <br />First born twins are now mature <br />and into mating overdrive, <br />Adults four, and none demure, <br />by end of month the pairs are five. <br /> <br />Now the pattern can emerge <br />just add each number to the last, <br />Two months later numbers surge <br />since five plus eight makes thirteen fast. <br /> <br />Year's end sees the figures soar <br />I think I've rightly done the sums, <br />Seven hundred fifty-four <br />is tallied counting fluffy bums. <br /> <br />*Fibonacci Sequence Poem* <br /> <br />R uff <br />A rsed <br />B onking <br />B unnykins <br />I ndiscriminate <br />T humpitty-humpitty-trysting <br />S upercalifragilisticexpiali Doe. <br /> <br />Note: Syllable count of consectutive lines is 1,1,2,3,5,8,13. <br />Note: I apologise for the 'a' word<br /><br />Diane Hine<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fibonacci-rabbits/
