Protection Shield Poem by Annalee Somerville

Oh Great Spirit, I am feeling so vulnerable
My heart is beating so fast,
I am trying to be courageous,
Yet feel I'm letting it go.

Oh Great Bear, Mother to all.
I am feeling like a small child,
Who fears again the monsters of past,
Hold me; coddle me in your arms,
Till I fear no more.

Oh my warrior spirits, I summon you,
I am at the battle ground and can not move.
Fill me with courage and strength
As we battle these demons together.

Those Whom I walk with,
I see your prints in the sand,
You honour me, to walk this battle
And give me hope and guidance.

Slowly, I'm transcending into the Butterfly,
I emerge as Rainbow Woman from the Wolf Clan,
I walk with Raven, Wolf, Deer and Horse,
My Warrior Spirits are Wind and Water.

I move silently and swift like that of Wind,
I am transparent like that of the Water,
I move slowly and keen like that of Deer
I prey on my demons like that of Wolf,
I run fast like that of wild horses,
I change shape and flight like that of the Raven,
I am me and …
I will Fear no more.
