THE NEXT ONE IS 12 - 12 - 2121 WHEN WE*LL ALL BE IN PARADISE !
PALINDROMES are an interesting pattern of WORDS
WAS IT A RAT I SAW Is a good example
AMORE ROMA An Italian sample !
DO GEESE SEE GOD ? Palindromicly absurd !
Napoleon's quip ABLE WAS I ERE I SAW ELBA
But a Palindromic Date is very very rare
900 years ago when none of us were there ?
11 - 11 - 1111 Before the invention ~ of the sweet PEACH MELBA
When GOD created EVE ~ out of ADAM*S RIB
ADAM palindromicly said *MADAM IM ADAM*
She was most impressed by the styling of his GIB
They admired each other and chatted on AD LIB !
Single words like HANAH can be palindromic too
And KAYAK - ROTOR - ANNA to name but a few !
Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome Love Angela & Brian 🧡💙🧡💙🧡
This Poem is presented as a Rhyming 4 4 4 2 Sonnet ~ OK
Palindromes are a fascinating *Figure of Speech* that can be worked into Poems & Prose. They can occur in any language ~ there are many well known examples in LATIN. SATOR AREPO TENET OPERA ROTAS *The Sower AREPO holds the wheels at work !* It can also be written as a Palindromic Word Square. They also occur in MUSIC when a piece of music is repeated ~ but is reversed. In Hydn*s Palindrome Symphony (47 in G) the third movement ~ Minuet & Trio ~ is a Musical Palindrome ! In Palindromic Poems the word order is reversed and (hopefully) still makes sense ! We*ll post an example in the week. Angela & Brian 🧡💙🧡💙🧡

Phew! Staggers back in amazement. All this info. It's educational 'ere ya know, not any ole rubbish! Palin-wotsits and who's that Arepo guy?! heehee.
We were excited, not too long ago, about dates such as 12.12.12. (2012). Ooohhh! Now we've run out of months, so have changed to 02.02.2020 etc.
Thanks UNCLE STEVE ~ A truly PALINDROMIC DATE reads backwards as well as forward hence
02022020 there will similar ones in 03033030 and 04044040 etc all very fascinating. Fido will explain it in syllables of one word !
Blessings & Joy to You & Your Mathematical Mutt

Nice one - yes I also like a good semordnilap - aw heck - that doesn't work!!
Interesting comment that ~ Uncle MIKE a EMORDNILAP is in fact the word used to describe a POEM which reads the same *forwards & backwards* not letterwise but linewise ! AS IN ~
Mary had little Lamb
Fleece white as Snow
Fleece white as Snow
Mary had little Lamb

BLESSINGS TO YOU AND YOURS

It sure aint a palindrome - strictly it's a word rather than a phrase that can be read backwards and has a different meaning as in bad = dab. Not many people know that.
Amazing
Thanks BRAGEE ~ Yes indeed ~ words are always full of amazement !
Yours ANGELA & BRIAN 💛💛💛

I was sitting by Beethoven's grave one day and I heard his music being played backwards from within the grave - he was decomposing. LOL
