What do you think of my Double Tetractys:?

Question

Tetractys

Tetractys, a poetic form invented by Ray Stebbing, consists of at least 5 lines of 1, 2, 3, 4, 10

syllables (total of 20). Tetractys can be written with more than one verse, but must follow suit

with an inverted syllable count. Tetractys can also bereversed and written 10, 4, 3, 2, 1.

Double Tetractys: 1, 2, 3, 4, 10, 10, 4, 3, 2, 1

Triple Tetractys: 1, 2, 3, 4, 10, 10, 4, 3, 2, 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 10

and so on.

"Euclid, the mathematician of classical times, considered the number series 1, 2, 3, 4 to have mystical

significance because its sum is 10, so he dignified it with a name of its own - Tetractys. The tetractys

could be Britain's answer to the haiku. Its challenge is to express a complete thought, profound or

comic, witty or wise, within the narrow compass of twenty syllables." - Ray Stebbing

Double Tetractys.

Journey

Through the world,

Navigating,

Slowly, ocean waves of swirling Murky

Water, specked with dense clouds dance dampened seas,

Rapids increase,

Rain released,

From the,

Clouds.

Answer 1

G., you are a Euclidian wonder!

Answer 2

Far above the realm of mortal poets like myself.

Answer 3

1,2,3,4,10,10,4,3,2,1 that adds up to very nice.  Did you know that 1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9.10 adds up to 55? And that 55 divided by one of it's numbers equals 11, which is the next number in the progression of numbers?  And did you know that if you take 11 and add it to 55 you get 66? And if you divide 66 by one of it's numbers you get 11, again?  Now, do you want to play poker with me?  lol  Numbers are interesting, especially when you are in the black!  Nice poem
