Camponium

I was working in the lab one day
Trying to solve a piece of DNA

I couldn’t believe what the numbers meant
I had discovered a new element!

Keeping my thoughts on solid ground
I assumed it must be an old compound

So I decided to go and test my doubt
And got all of my beakers out

I knew I must take immediate action
To reproduce this chemical reaction

For they all say it must be a fable
To add a new element to the periodic table

Soon there was titration all over the place
Some with an acid, some with a base

I followed my lab books’ meticulous path
Then spent time re-doing the math

So many thoughts occurred to me
Like a Nobel Prize in chemistry

For no one could disprove something that Camper discovers
I call it Camponium - the element for lovers
