Fitness fanatic - just finished my seventh marathon of the year, next stop: Cape Town!
A gardener gardened a puzzle of math,
'Pon squares, a Slanted hedgerow he grew.
All looking for love, exploring a path,
Were thirty-six guests, on every path two.
With step after step, they moved t'ward each other
Until they would meet on the black tiles below.
Now, one might've walked one step more than the other,
Perhaps they kept score with their newly-met beau.
The women then named for us bets matrimonial,
Their union they wished to the whole world declare;
The men named a veiled degree-ten polynomial,
And argued their values when joined as a pair.
To check that your counting of points is all clean,
A sum of them by the eight letters will clue,
First twenty-six, hundred sixteen, then thirteen,
Then forty-one, sixteen, and thirty-nine too.
With twenty-and-two as your second-last checksum,
There's zero to finish; one last step in store.
Now mod thirty-one for each pairs' final outcome,
Discover the Rose who's the true paramour.
