The Elephant

Ancient Dreamer,

I call on your power.

Grant me a measure

Of your gentle strength.

Lead me to patience and confidence.

Remove unneeded obstacles from my path

And help me overcome those that remain

With intelligent grace.

Teach me more of loyalty and royalty,

Acting always with compassion,

Especially in those moments when I must be a warrior.

Help me remember to honor the elders

And nurture the young,

To use my own keen discernment,

And to commit once decided,

Using the full weight of my strength

To accomplish my dreams.

Elephant, Please,

Walk with me.

Done
