Flowering a Hexagon - by Paul Moosberg

When flowering a hexagon,
One must remember rules
Note the patterns that come out,
And jot them down as tools

Let side length run on down in pairs
As volume lessens each declares
Then shining new patterns compare
These hexagons and their affairs

Twenty five percent less volume,
For each new one that you draw
Less twenty five percent side length,
For every two that sprawl

Let the side length run on down
Volume lessens in what’s bound
Shining new patterns are found
With hexagons that spin around
