Strange Mathematics



Wisdom tells us to follow
The rules of mathematics
Prosperity and harmony it brings
If followed and you do not cringe!
                                                               Addition calls to add friends
                                                               That truly our saviours in need
                                                                 More friends and more help in crisis
                                                                  Consolation in time when you sulk!

Subtractions if you could
Then go for your enemies
Less burden, fewer burden and fear
Lives clear as crystal, fear never near!
                                                                              Always divide if you could,
                                                                              Then try with sorrows for relief,
                                                                               Sharing and caring sure does,
                                                                               Add strength to your growing belief!

And finally multiply if you should,
Ample of happiness with all,
Trust me if you follow these rules,

Harmony amidst you stand tall!
