Flower Poems

In Love with the Wind
      
The wind blows on
to every horizon
passing through the earth
where it could be heard

Here comes a flower
in its flourishing
the spirit of the wind
soaking in every inch of its living

Shaking and trembling
the flower nearly stops breathing
Screaming and shouting
the flower rebels from its rooting

Struggling against its origin
the flower dreams to fly away
to be free,
gone with the wind

But the wind is gone,
leaving the flower alone,
scattered like a fragile bone
until its days are gone

Zhoubi Bowl, by Philip Chapman-Bell
PDF Print E-mail
Tuesday, 31 March 2009

For this week, we've got a nice, deceptively simple bowl from Philip (you might know him as oschene on Flickr). I say deceptively simple because although it's not to hard to fold, the math behind it is fascinating, and surprisingly complex, when it gets down to it. There's a division by sevenths in there, and even an allusion to a proof for the Pythagorean Theorem from an old Chinese mathematical text.

Diagrams available here.
