This poem is for all the unabashed nerds and geeks out there who love everything from science, fantasy novels, video games, and all things fun and nerdy. Originally I wrote this as a post on Facebook, but I added to it. I could not squeeze in everything from nerd culture, and I tried to keep some things subtle. I hope you like my poem for well wishing to nerds and those who embrace geekhood.
A Nerd’s Blessing
May you always roll a 20 in life.
May your HP stay high,
and the cake not be a lie,
and have an extra life in case you die.
May you not cross the dragon’s line of fire,
but ride on its back.
May you always believe in yourself,
especially if you are a fairy.
May you never be the last unicorn,
and find your kin.
May you find a black lotus card,
Know where your towel is,
and fence like a Jedi,
when the orcs invade like evil cattle.
May your patronus never fail,
as you face your battles
whether by phoenix hearted wand
or imperium silver crystal.
Let the computer errors resolve,
and trojans be blocked by firewalls.
May worms be eaten, and viruses cured.
May the universe guide you through life,
May you find chemistry in love.
Be delivered from zombie strife,
and beamed up above by aliens
when the world ends.
