Here Are Your Best Science Valentines
Light Hearted
Science // 

In preparation for Valentine's Day, we turned to the Twitter-verse, asking our readers to send us their best love poems--but with a science twist. As expected, the responses were both clever and delightful, giving us all the warm fuzzies we need before the romantic holiday. Enjoy the witty word stylings of Popular Science readers, as well as a few from our contributors and staff.

 

Your arms feel like homeostasis —@chairDebonair

I'm attracted to you so strongly, scientists will have to develop a fifth fundamental force. —@jd010990

I wish I were adenine so I could bond with U. —@MrRussell0012

Roses are red
Violets are blue,
E = mc2
and that makes me infinitely hot for you. —@wvalles12

Receding objects are red
Approaching objects are blue
From my spectral shift you can calculate that
I'm getting closer to you
@PopSciEats

Uranium atoms are so small
Nuclear explosions are so big
If the missiles fly to end it all
A fallout shelter for you I'll dig
@AthertonKD

Europa's smooth surface
Hints at water under the ice
The perfect recipe for alien beings?
With our spark, we bring them to life
@lorengrush

I've got this!
How do I love thee?
A biochemical release in the brain...
Nevermind
@anne_c_lewis

Galaxies are large,
And muons are small,
But, Valentine dear,
You eclipse them all.
@gscottoliver

Of all the particles in the universe
Even ones we can't observe
You're my love b/c
All best were put in one nerd
@BritDuong

Are you made of Copper and Tellurium? Because you're CuTe... ; )
@ThePocketLab

Roses are red, violets are blue
My sticky ends are perfect for y
Wait, come back, I'm a geneticist!
@premeesaurus

Science Valentine
Your beauty neutralizes
Makes life entropic
@DaveMosher
