A Summer of Science and Friendship

REU Poem: A Summer of Science and Friendship
By Bradford Paik








This summer was exciting; it's hard to say in words,
What it's like to spend all day, hanging out with nerds.

Our inner geeks took flight, "MOSS SPERM AND SEM!"
If my memories were rocks, they would surely be all gems ( moss covered gems).

And please remember to be safe with sodium and water,
Else your parents will have to say, they have no son or daughter.

Our studies were diverse: computers to biology,
And thanks to Dr. Flower, we can all act ethically.

I've learned a lot of science and am scared of nanobots,
A genius, I will sound like when I reference quantum dots.

Nerds or not, through this program, we proved to be the best,
We're off the scale and charts in a coolness/science test.

This program was a blast and this last claim is so true,
In a lab, I'd work all day, if my lab mates all were you.
