My Guardian Angeles

My Guardian Angels

4/2013

Tattooed Angels
Enshrine my body,
Protectors of what's right,
forever vigilant
All day and all through the night!

Ganesh, Hindu Elephant God,
Loyal son of Shiva and Parvati
Embodiment of selfless devotion/remover of obstacles 
Provider of strength and honesty
 
The winged Sufi Heart
Coupled with the holiest name, ????
A constant reminder of Who I really Am,
And from whence I came!

Phoenix, symbol of rebirth
Arise from the fires of hell
To reclaim thy rightful place,
On the throne from which I fell 

Oh Great Buddha
Bodhisattva, the compassionate one,
Exorcize my demons, my suffering,
Sitting beneath the Bodhi Tree, thy will be done

Om Mani Padme Hum
Adorns my left arm
Beneath the Double Dorje, Dharma Wheel,
Stating "Life just IS" It is the magical charm

Peace symbol amidst Growing Vines,
a life long bond of daughter and Dad,
Symbolic of ever growing and expanding love
Alive, vibrant, political, for this I'm am forever glad

Celtic Tree of Life, Sustainer of beauty and grace,
making connections with all that is alive,
Encompassing the dark and the light
Enclosed in a circle of wholeness, where all life does thrive

Ouroboros, snake eating it's own tail, 
Symbol of completion, of that which is whole,
encompassing both the tree of peace, and the Celtic tree of life
The snake forms the sign of infinity, opening the way for the SOUL! 


Shekinah, Quan Yin, Gaia, Great Goddess,
Resting in a Pyramid of Power
She is our foundation,
so necessary by which to scale the tower

We find the ancient holiest of names,
Emblazoned in a ring of fire
forbidden to be spoken or written
with the promise to take you higher!

A beating heart, Star of David, and Om,
Union of opposites and the universal sound
Life, Compassion, Peace, & Love,
The Divine presence is all around!

My Angels, guardians of body & soul
Artistic symbols of love & hope
Battling a debilitating disease
Giving me the will and strength to cope
