Nan Poems - Poems about Nan

Nan

We had so much fun, didn't we nan !
You were my bestest friend.
Getting up to mischief, any problem we could mend.
Rolling on the floor with laughter, tears streaming down our face.

How lucky was I, that you were mine, we had no time to waste.
Caravanning holidays, a great time by the sea. 
Paddling, building castles, you,

Nan, Our Shining Light

A shining light has now been dimmed
A voice we loved is stilled
The chair where you sat, now empty
Is a place that can never be filled

A golden heart has stopped beating
So loving, so pure, so kind
But her memory will live on forever
In the legacy that she left behind

For so many years she has reigned 
Our mum,

Palindromes - a Great Day Out

Maram grass dewed.
An adda takes a chance,
And, drinks from the dewed Maram,
Ere the sun dried it.
Now full of pep was awa.
Saw, I was astounded!
Or did I just imagine?
Our deed done, clock says home.
Otto called, "We are late, come on"!
"Nan will be worried"!
"Ata", I screamed, then ran!
Home, nan greeted us 
with some pop fruit flavoured.
Mmm, fresh

Nan

Sewing machine, long idle, gathered dust
Absentmindedly, Jackie wrote her name
thereupon, watching as dust motes floated
upwards, caught in sunset's evening rays
Brushing away a tear, she turned around
surveying, Nan's neglected room
provoked, a vague feeling of emptiness
Psychically, Jackie, quite distinctly heard
"The war years seemed like only yesterday"
It was her Nan's voice. Jackie gasped aloud
"Nan, is that you"? "I'm

Farewell Nan

We write this poem for our missing Nan,
She vanished, we don’t know where you are.
The computer swallowed our precious Nan,
To us she was always our loving star.
She pressed the wrong keys
And disappeared from view.
It devoured her completely,
Only left her right footed shoe,
Experts searched the computer,
Couldn’t find any clue.
We searched every programme,
Files of every kind.
We asked

Our Nan

She’s always very clean and neat
With chocolate, sweets and other treats
When mummy says no, nanny wins
Like when we want to do baking
Peek-a-boo to nursery rhymes
Mischief making, pull faces times
Lots of games and lots of laughter
Silly times like when nan’s dafter
At the park on swings and slides
When it rains build tents and hide
We like to colour

Ann and Nan

Snapshot memories of are past
 having so much fun with the hope that it would last
 To my best friend Nan,
 a beacon of light to a hurting world in need of love

 To the truest friend I ever had
 those memories by the stonewall
 Started playing together as friends
 She had blue eyes &

Nan

Five years ago today my Nan should've been 90
But instead i sat with her while she died in her nighty
The silence in the room was all that was left
But i understand the special time i spent with her,as she drew her last breath
Her soul had gone but her body still lay
I would do anything to

Nan Fan

NAN FAN

The hand-held fan
Being held by Nan,
Was vigorously fluttering 
As fast as she can,
The heat was as hot
As a frying pan,
Being over a hundred,
Just like Nan.

Nan

Walks with her shopping bag on her arm,
A big heavy light leather bag,
Her Mary Poppins bag,

She wants her milk,
The green topped one for her tea,
She doesn’t like the other one,

Something nice,
Some of that chocolate as well,
See if they’ve got that stuff

That stuff  in the packet was nice,
I don’t like that “whats it called”
It had

I Am Nan -No Relation of Jan

I am Nan, no relation of Jan
Just an admirer and a fan
Her poems are well read
Mine are masterpieces (only in my head)
So you see I can't do what she can.

I am Nan, no relation of Jan
Just an admirer and a fan
Her sense of humor is godsent
Mine would be too if it wasn't absent
So you see

Nr Little Nan

Little Nan in kindergarten
Has learned to say, “I beg your pardon”,
“Excuse me”, “thank you” and “if you please”,
And other phrases such as these.
When home she hugs her little brother
And is a helper for her mother.
She is so sweet that it is cloying
And others find her quite annoying.

My Nan

I used to sit on my Nan’s knee; she ran her fingers through my hair
She told me all the stories of when she thought life was still fair

Many a time just sitting there listening to her stories told with mirth
I wouldn’t have swapped it for anything; there was nothing of equal worth.

Stories of my granddad,

A Letter For My Nan

I miss you Nan, everyday, and my life it seems so hard
without you by my side Nan, I don't know where to start
I thought about you yesterday, today and last week too
I think about you everyday and i don't know what to do
I wish it would get easier Nan, since you told me to forget
but

Nan

A single cell gone wild
cancer sucking the flesh from your bones
your still chest, my broken heart
hope lost on that still night
weakened and weary my future looks bleak
crushed by the weight of what will never be.
