Meeting Nan Poem by Lynn Anne Brown

Meeting Nan



I'm really liking this year so far
Which is good, because well,
Last year sucked
Big Time
A not in a good way

It drained energy
I really didn't have to spare
And weighed like a brick
Well into Summer
I didn't even
Hear the stir
Till nearly Lughnasadh

But then
After
Many, Many Passes
I finally
Looked into that Mirror
And realized
The monsters there
Had all been tamed
But not declawed
They'd never
Leave me
Defenseless

However
I met the promise
That kept the promise
That what I put in
Is what I'd get out
No More
No Less
Just That
And that was
Good with me
Cause I didn't want
For Much

Good Places to Go
Good Folk to be With
Those who cared
For each others
Well being

How could I help?
What creature of
Of my imaginings
Could I offer
To populate
The World
Our Magic's
Wrought
And suddenly
Nan Appeared
And I understood
Next Time
Someone
Need to Talk
To Remind Them
That I need a Chair

However An Hour
Listening to the Sorrows
Of an Imp
Who slowed Down
Just long enough
To Watch
The
Sun Rise
Because he had
To come make sure
That it was
Me
Standing
By the Triple
Cedars
in the center
of our Park
Was worth the Advil
And call to my Herbalist

Love Nan
