Inner Knowledge
I have an inner voice that speaks to me,
the gift of inner knowledge about true self is my key;
and because of this- my soul is free.
What lays deep within me is my beauty,
finding the invisible is my duty;
this knowledge makes me pure,
and my spiritual character will ever endure.
I have learnt the good way of life,
to be true to me no matter the strife;
I follow the teachings of the spirits in the sky,
my spiritual guides from birth until I die.
The teaching of my Ojibwe Grandfather's are true
I was taught goals to always pursue;
and I will share them with you.
Wisdom is something to always cherish,
without this humanity will perish;
to know and give unconditional love,
even when love has flown above.
Respect must be given to be received,
face life with bravery and integrity is achieved;
honor all life's creatures, be honest and humble,
do this and inner knowledge will never crumble.
