Euclid

Title:     Euclid
Author: Vachel Lindsay [More Titles by Lindsay]

Old Euclid drew a circle
On a sand-beach long ago.
He bounded and enclosed it
With angles thus and so.
His set of solemn greybeards
Nodded and argued much
Of arc and of circumference,
Diameter and such.
A silent child stood by them
From morning until noon
Because they drew such charming
Round pictures of the moon.

[The end]
Vachel Lindsay's poem: Euclid
