Elemental Love: We Love the Periodic Table

July 17, 2023 by noemi

periodic-coffee-table
I was never good in Chemistry, but I did more than pass my courses. Still, I cannot explain the attraction I have for everything related to the Periodic Table. Who doesn’t find it fascinating? Hate it or love it, the Periodic Table has something about it that you just can’t ignore.

“Part professional nerd” Eric Curts got my undivided attention – and more – today when I discovered a poem that he wrote and posted in his blog recently. Professional nerd he may be, but Eric seems to be a man who is in touch with his sensitive side – something that one can’t say about a lot of men these days, eh? 😉

Dubbed Elemental Love, the poem integrates some elements in their symbol form. Now it is up to you to dig up those memories of the Periodic Table and remember what the two-letter symbols stand for. It’s not that hard – especially if you have been fixating on the Periodic Table in the past several years.

Elemental Love
In the light of the Ag moon
With the stars and Hg above
I Pb you to a quiet place
And told you of my love

I drew a breath of O
And smiled brave and bold
With my Ne the ground below
I offered a ring of Au

With just a Ni to my name
You said “Yes” thereupon
I kissed you on your Cu lips
Now my lonely days Ar

In case you need some help (shame!), here are the elements used in the poem (in random order): copper, lead, silver, nickel, argon, oxygen, gold, neon, and lead.

Windows Error

Do you like poetry? Maybe not? I have a confession to make. Poetry calms me down. When I feel stressed or something is bothering me, reading poetry usually does the trick.

Now you may not feel the same way, but I am sure that you will appreciate the effort and creativity that went into these one-of-a-kind computer error messages. They are not your usual curt and brief error messages that go straight to the point. Don’t get me wrong – there is nothing wrong with these messages, they get the job done. But with all the time I spend in front of my computer, some deviation makes for a little bit of fun. [Read more…] about Haiku Computer Error Messages
