Ode To Numbers
We see numbers all of the time
Numbers can help, or numbers produce fright
Numbers have a good, and they have a bad
Here I’ll explain, just don't get mad
Numbers were tough to us as kids, even and odd.
We counted to 10
We use them to grade, and we use them to place
First, second, third, that’s the case
1 is the best
2 is good
3 is alrigth
No one wants 4
Numbers are seen as a thing use to rank
Numbers are used in many things,
We stare at the corner of our phones in fear,
Hoping that number won’t reach 0
We use it in money, 1, 5, 10, 20,
50, 100 we know that alredy
We use them to show how long were alive
Years, months and days
We use it in time,
Stare at the clock till it hits 3,
So we can jump of our desks and run outside
Numbers can do whatever we want
We use them to count sheep to fall asleep,
Numbers make our life easy, and we don’t realize
If numbers didn’t exist how would we count?
With apples or oranges?
With spoons and forks?
Numbers affect use like any other,
From 1 through 9 don’t forget 0, there’s infinite
Possibilities of numbers to be seen
Like 153, or 435,
Large numbers count too
Like 1,453,742
Numbers are everywhere even tho you dont see it
Yes your math teacher was rigth, we use them all the time
Numbers are big and numbers are small
Numbers are scary and then they are not
Everywhere numbers we see
1 through 10 we count all them time
1-2-3 again and again
4-5-6 numbers dont stop
7-8 9-10
