I was asked what my spirit name would be. I thought about it and thought of the white buffalo and the eagle both symbolizing the free spirit.

The white eagle searches the sky
For the hope of the awakening below
In circles of light
The ever-reaching eye of truth
Pierces it way into you

For the purity of its flight
Will surely bless you
In the inner peace of internal bliss
To an ever increasing world of creativity

The white eagles wings covers your way
In the protection from the spirits
That has chosen you to follow
And then to lead
Among the difficult paths
To effect humanity�s plight

For in the garden within you
Must be shared
Or it will surely die
From the lack of motivational output

To create your masterpiece
You must fly the winds
Failing to do this
You will stagnate
To fester inside into a bitter boil

But the white eagle will claw at you
To tear you away from any self doubt
For the angel�s spirit has to ride high
In the currents of a hope

That the beauty we all seek
Will become visible to all others
Like an rainbow in a gentle morning mist
It will show a way

For it is there to reach for
And as the skin generate cuts
And the emotions in you cry for help
The vision of the white eagle
In his garden of delight
Will force you onto more pain

More than you could ever imagine
But in the end you will have lived
To retire in the comfort and gentleness
Of the visionary magical last wind

To give blessing from a spirit now departed
Into the next generation of dreamers
Of flights of fantasies born
From an awakened spirit now gone

So white eagle lay your claim
For my heart needs you
To write in the passion
That others will be blinded
From their self doubt

And look inward to the sight
Of a billion people
Caring for one and another
In the light of eternity

Generating hugs reacting into each other
In the music that creates choruses
That will blend together
With the winds of time
Carrying my white eagle
On after me
