Sense Sonnet - Pumper

Arctic Term

The word, arctic, derives from
The Greek word, arktos, meaning bear,
And originally did come
From Arktos Megale up there
In the northern spheres of the sky,
"The Great Bear" constellation that
Travelers navigated by
Early on knowing it was at
Always in the north to be found.
An English word, arctic, now is,
And to the north arctic is bound,
A place where polar bears do biz.

Antarctic - maybe you can guess
Is in the south and is bearless.
