Numbers Comment-M.F.S.


Numbers are so fascinating, as everyone is different. I picked my two images because one is different numbers all mixed together that apart aren't much but when together are huge. And the other shows a pattern which all numbers do. my favourite verse is "Even subtraction is never loss, just addition somewhere else: five sparrows take away two, the two in someone else's garden now." it shows that subtraction is addition somewhere else which is cheerful and then its not like you just killed the bird which is comforting.

My impression of the poem is that numbers are useful and the writer wanted to draw attention that is often ignored or taken advantage of. Also it gives a different view of numbers which are always so cheerful to be used. This would be something good to show someone who is just learnig numbers so to show what their for.
