Isaac Newton's Birthday

January the fourth is Isaac Newton's Birthday Though near three centuries dead his legend not in decay England's greatest genius as some are known to say The Wizard of Woolsthorpe from here far away Watching an apple fall to the ground from it's mother tree Gave him the idea of the Earth's Gravity A man who is honoured in story and rhyme And in his thinking one well ahead of his time Since the day that he died many Seasons have gone But the legend of Newton is still living on He died in 1727 four years with four score And in the history of human achievements he is one to the fore Amongst the World's great minds he is one you can rate And one can say of him he was born to create.
