Best Spirit Animal Poems

Beware the morning tiger
Before his first coffee
     Look out for the afternoon lizard:
     Ectotherm on the sidewalk soaking in other people’s acknowledgement
          On occasion I’m a hummingbird

beneath the bright ember fire  and azure skies,
I close and rest my eyes for a moment
sleep prowl with the sun's warm caress.

I lie in quiet rhythmic purr of the pride.
the whole land dreads both of the beast and king
 that walk-in integrity and honor.

I have so many I am a walking wildlife zoo

My ultimate most powerful spirit animal is the deer
neck to neck with the wolf and the eagle
Deer reminds...

The soul of the earth is wrapped up inside
And the spirit of God is walking beside me
The universe rests upon my shoulder
And I can feel its power moving all over
embracing the soul of man
And causing destruction upon the land
We have witnessed this over and over
Man...

I praise myself- a 'feral' animal,
so like you, Elephant- majestic, wild;
your dedication to herd families
has influenced me since I was a child.

Like you, dear Elephant, instincts abound:
a mother, matriarch surely I am,
consumed with 'tribal' harmony, like you,
fierce guardian- yet, gentle as a lamb.

Brave elephant, devoted...

He is not of this world
Living between the dream and spirit world
Crossing both borders he does
You can feel his presence
He runs with spirits
Seeking you in dreams
Fear not his appearance
For he is just a visitor
In this world you will find him
In the shadows of the full...

Little Bear was watched over carefully by her bear spirit animal
She did not always see her, but she felt the bond and communication

Always I’ve been drawn to . . . cats.
I’ll see cute yapping puppies in a pet store.
They just don’t appeal to me as much as
the cute quiet kitty in the corner -
that cat which I can stare at for many minutes,
wondering what she’s thinking as...

Every mid nights I stay partially awake..
Haunted by schizophrenic nightmares,
Detached from conscience,
Convulsed by delusions..
"Serpentine spirit" swings me into unimaginable
adventures and tries paralysing me..

I heard a serpent would come 
to prick us with venom only if we commit any sin..
But I haven't committed any..? i cogitate..!!
Then,...

Winter wolf sees me through,
Guarding me with sheer love,
Fending off the pack,
Making sure I am nurtured

Understanding my pain,
Soothing me in ways only he can.
Keeping me away from others,
Keeping me safe.

Winter wolf, my best spirit animal,
Comes to me in my dreams,
Assures me all will be great
If...

she trusted his council, he would come back with a plan
a link between her ancestors and her offspring,
an ancient wise entity, in the form of a hoot owl
he would be full of ideas,
she allowed herself to...
