Like the title equation, spring if full of interactions that add, subtract, multiply, and divide to make to a blooming world to explore.

Salas calls these poems, but there really isn’t anything poetic about them expect for the odd line breaks.  The real stars here are the equations, which would make a great launch to an activity that can easily be extended to other seasons or situations.
