Great Spirit of the Leopard

Great Spirit of the Leopard

Your graceful agility

A symbol of authenticity

And rare beauty

A manifest of unspoken power.

Perched on the Amarula tree

An impressionist reverie

Around whom we gather

In silent fascination.

Aah sacred Spirit

Your rosetted costume

À hiéroglyphic code

Of a regal majesty

Far beyond our human comprehension

We covet you cosmic elusiveness.

Pursue your lazy meanderings

Jealously drawing on

Your cultivated elusiveness.

Wisdom-keeper

Share the lesson of Life.

As we navigate the intricacies

Of our collective precaririty

Balancing the turbulent tides

Of our human ego.

You are the lodestar

Piloting the world of the subconscious

Quenching the thirst

Of a yearning self-reliance

Of seekers of Truth.

Fuel our fearlessness

As we stubbornly soldier on.

Evolving Consciousness

Of the interconnected trellis

The confluence of all that is.

Lodestar

Of our Ancestral Spirits

Your flickering rudder

Spiralling us

Beyond the Untruth.

Home

To Joy

And the celebration of Life.
