Spirals demonstrate
Flower petals also follow
One, two, three, five, eight, thirteen, twenty one and beyond

“Observing the geometry of plants, flowers or fruit, it is easy to recognize the presence of recurrent structures and forms…. We can easily find the numbers of the Fibonacci sequence in the spirals formed by individual flowers in the composite inflorescences of daisies, sunflowers, cauliflowers and broccoli.
This poem is my first attempt to demonstrate a Fibonacci Spiral poem … obviously based on Fibonacci’s Sequence.
