“Pan” a Poem by Trudi Nicola
Inspired by My Painting “Pan Kicking the Universe”
Swift of mind and
Swift of foot
Unbound from Earth
Each tether cut
Unbridled passion
Lust for life
Flows through your veins
An ardour, rife
Without much thought
Without much care
You rise triumphant
Extraordinaire
A pantheon
Can’t pin you down
You claim star clusters
As your crown
With poise and grace
You spin and wield
Your brand of magic
A stardust shield
Impervious
Fear has no place
Behold, for Pan
Now claims this space
A final gesture
With defiant glee
You kick each universe
To eternity

I enjoyed writing this poem and it seemed to flow quickly, like Pan’s energy! ✨
