The following poem was inspired by poems by Douglas Florian!

"A Bit of Genetics"

Four boxes

Sixteen boxes

Sixty four boxes!

Punnett squares,

Big and small,

Will you be short?

Or will you be tall?

Your genes take responsibility

For determining your abilities --

It's all probability!

Dominant genes are always oppressive 

Towards all that's recessive.

Incompletely dominant and the blending is prominent!

Codominance makes all alleles brave,

and mix together with confidence

And so as you can see,

Genetics really isn't so hard;

But if you were an absentee,

You might not want to see your report card.
