Sir Isaac: To Commemorate Newton's Birthday



Will not go
Unless something makes it
Will not rest
Unless made to either
Activity provoking reactivity
In apples
And keeping orbs like planets together
Even non-orbs
While what goes up must come down
Removing heliocentric doubts.
White light has seven colors
Generalizedly expanding something raised to an nth power
Voila a power series born
All the while integrating and differentiating
All done without a computer or mechanical aid
Nor electricity
Theologian, Alchemist, Physicist, Astronomer, natural philosopher
“boy playing on the seashore”.


NOTE: Newton would refer to himself as a boy playing on the seashore.
