Mysterious Maths

A secret of maths lays there,

In the person studying it,

On one side it can be fun for few,

And on another can leave a person in despair,

It can be a blessing in disguise or a curse its all dependent on you ....

What fun it was first to,

Do mathematics as it was,

So easy and simple maybe because,

First we didn't have any clue,

That later it would change so drastically!!

In second standard it was only basic,

But as we kept going to,

Higher standards doing,

Maths made us feel sick!!

Algebra, Simple Interest, Theta and Alpha

The syllabus of this kept increasing steadily,

Eliminating the left few chances,

To just pass this subject easily .....

We students didn't experience glee,

To have opted for this tough subject (as it currently seemed so!)

After graduating and getting a degree

It was such a relief that

I can not even describe the feeling

I undoubtedly felt so free

No more Maths bore or struggles to score .....Then I realised something

That I really miss those days

The different methods of solving

A sum and those silly mistakes I made

I now really miss those ways

Of solving the hard and challenging sums....
