Pi Day Celebrations!

OK, people, I know we're all disappointed about all the Pi Day Parades and Pi Parties that have been cancelled due to the Corona Virus, but don't despair! There is plenty of Pi fun you can have all day (note, however, if you're on your computer, be sure it has virus protection.)

Here are some ideas of ways to celebrate:

Pi Poetry

Example

PI Sonnet:

Definition: a poem of fourteen lines following the rhyming scheme: aaa.bccccbddddd; Typically a love poem.

Diameter, a straight and simple number

Alone and feeling down and umber

In boredom she would simply slumber

[Pointed pause]

But wait!

A number of a different sort

Up front, she finds he's rather short

Oh, but past the point, there's no report

of ever reaching an ending port.

It’s fate!

He’s different, yes, not Hex nor Bi.

This irrational number was her guy.

At last she'd found her Sweetie Pi.

And so, she proposed with an excited cry,

"Let's go full circle and multiply!"

Pi-Ku

Derived from Haiku (俳句 high-koo)

which uses a 5-7-5 syllable pattern.

Definition: A Poem in which the number of syllables in each line, matches that of PI: 3.1415

What is the

Point

Of

Never-ending

PI?

It's irrational.

Iambic Pi-Tamiter

Definition: A poem in which each line has double the syllables and the number of metrical feet as that of PI.
