Numerological Nuances

We met in our college algebra class

and easily became friends for life

*

When I blew into town

she caught the gust of wind that carried me in

Delighted to share the air with me once again

*

I spoke to her in numbers

A language of its own

*

One we learned together

but she was unaware of the

depth in which they rule us all

*

I told her the significance

of the numbers on the boxes

filled with our food

*

We consumed our meals

as she digested the words I spoke

*

7+2= 9

7+3=10

1+0= 1

*

9 is the highest

10 is technically 1

*

Both are beautiful symbols

The end of a cycle

The beginning of a new one

*

“Do you feel there is a new cycle beginning in your life?”

*

Her face lit up like the sun

She told me about her new avenues

along the road of life

*

That’s the beauty of numbers

They are our guides

Our markers of milestones

Our progress reports from the universe

*

It all adds up

when you do the math
