The Enigma of 3,6,9 (P.2)
#EntryPoetryFoundation
Three,
Is the first odd prime,
A lonely number that stands alone.

Six,
Is the first perfect number,
A harmonious sum of its own factors.

Nine,
Is the square of three,
A powerful product of repetition.

Three,
Is the number of dimensions,
A spatial framework that shapes reality.

Six,
Is the number of faces of a cube,
A solid figure that fills the space.

Nine,
Is the number of planets in the solar system,
A celestial order that orbits the sun.

Three,
Is the number of primary colors,
A visual spectrum that paints the world.

Six,
Is is the number of sides of a hexagon,
A regular polygon that forms a honeycomb.

Nine,
Is the number of muses in Greek mythology,
A divine inspiration that fuels the arts.

Three, six,
And nine...
Are they just numbers,

Or something more?
Do they hold the key to the universe,
Or just to our minds?
