I just found this poem that I had written freshman year of college. The poem truly romanticizes the experience of studying chemistry, but the yearning for the days when learning was fun still comes through.
Chemistry
The sweet smell of book orders
Bright white pages
Fresh and new,
The stiff spine unopened
A world to walk into
Carbon chains
And ring Alkanes
Illustrations for the old
Stick figures in love
Stories of attraction told
Like the days
When we were young
Memories when school was fun
Excitement in unopened books
Reading them in quiet nooks
Adventures in a fantasy
Has become journeys through chemistry

I like this one dans... even though I don't like chemistry very much.
