NaPoWriMo Early Bird Post

 Hello!

It's another year of NaPoWriMo!  I love this event and I love the challenge of writing a poem every day for a month and I've been looking forward to it this year.  To get the creative juices going I jumped on the early bird prompt to write a poem: to write a poem based on a "fun fact".   I decided to go with something science-y since that's a common theme for a lot of my poetry.  Did you know that light is both a particle (photon) and a wave?  It is! And we have the science to back it up.  But it is strange to think about light that way.  So here is a poem dedicated to light. 


Light is a photon and a wave
What a strange way to behave
As if the universe gave
Light the ability to waive
All logic in its properties.

Light is a wave and a photon
What an interesting phenomenon
In both states until acted upon
Through measurements and conclusions drawn
We know this fun fact to be true. 


Thanks for reading!  And stay tuned for a month full of poetry!
