Rooted in love,
And unchanging rhythms…
Family card games, board games,
And German traditions.
Yearly challenges
in robotics engineering,
Awarded first place
in a coding competition.

Rooted in love,
And predictable rhythms…
For braving unexpected changes
Through COVID college conditions;
Building confidence and competency
In math, chemistry,
and public policy.

Rooted in love,
And unchanging rhythms…
Yet embracing the uncertainties
Of exploring other nations,
As a Fulbright scholar
In Combinatorics…
With a passion for enumeration,
Combination, and permutation;
For sets of elements
And math relations.

Rooted in love,
And predictable rhythms…
An anchor for change;
For resilience; for strength;
And for future ambitions,
Rooted… in LOVE!
Michaela
