Etymology

From Middle French poème, from Latin poēma, from Ancient Greek ποίημα (poíēma), from ποιέω (poiéō, “to make”). Widely displaced English leed.

Meanings

A literary piece written in verse.
- Some poems, echoing the purpose of early poetic treatises on scientific principles, attempt to elucidate the mathematical concepts that underlie prime numbers. Others play with primes’ cultural associations. Still others derive their structure from mathematical patterns involving primes. 2013 July-August, Sarah Glaz, “Ode to Prime Numbers”, in American Scientist, volume 101, number 4:
A piece of writing in the tradition of poetry, an instance of poetry.
A piece of poetic writing, that is with an intensity or depth of expression or inspiration greater than is usual in prose.
