Bear Prayer Poster

This parchment poster offers a prayer to the spirit of the Bear, celebrating the noble creature and all that it has to teach us. Written with the utmost reverence for the Bear`s strength ability to sustain in the harshest of conditions, Travis Bowman provides beautiful words that are brought to life by the illustrations of Eliot Alexander. The parchment poster upon which it is printed measures 8" by 11" and reads: Great Bear Spirit I seek your lessons. Show me how to sink Deep within myself To find the answers I seek. Teach me to understand That I possess all the Resources Necessary To Survive. Help me know when To seek solitude, As you do in winter, And also when To emerge and nurture All that was born in darkness, As you do in spring. Guide me towards sweetness and play, And remind me to climb higher. Guide me towards wisdom and truth, And remind me to be ever patient. Guide me towards strength, Keeper of Medicine, That I might defend those I love, Move with speed to where I need to be, And stand nobly for what I believe.
