Here are some pi limericks/poems that I like.
There was a young student from Rye,
Who worked out the value of pi.
"It happens," said he,
"That it's just over 3,
Though I'd rather you don't ask me why."
If inside a circle a line
Hits the center and goes spine to spine
And the line’s length is “d,”
The circumference will be
d times 3 point 1 4 1 5 9.
Now there is an ancient Greek letter,
And I think no other is better.
It isn't too tall,
It might look very small,
But its digits - they go on forever.
Three point one four one five nine two,
It's been around forever - it's not new.
It appears everywhere - in here and in there,
It's irrational I know, but it's true!
