Poem about Spirituality

I am very interested in the spiritual side of life, and this is a poem I wrote when I was learning about my spiritual guides. Those who are like-minded will appreciate the words.

Finding Your Spiritual Guides

Published by Family Friend Poems January 2008 with permission of the Author.

Who are they, what do they do?
Where do they come from, are they for me and you?
What do they look like, how do they sound?
Where do you keep them, where are they found?

Can you hear them, see them, touch them?
How long do they stay?
Maybe a year, a week, or just even a day.

Questions you ask of them, you see
They are here to help us you and me
To guide and love us through all our years
Keeping away darkness and negative fears

But to find one yourself there's little to do
Just relax and listen to the true you
The little word or thought in your head
Is it a guide or something you read

My guess is with little effort and care
You're going on a journey so be prepared
To a wonderful place that's hard to have foreseen
Where your guides are and have always been

Talk to them and listen with ease
To what they say you will be pleased
So now you know your questions fulfilled
Because you took the time, your mind you stilled

It doesn't take much, just a few minutes a day
To meet your guides who have something to say
Words of great wisdom given with love
To spread 'round the world from up above

I practice spiritualism and recently I had a friend come to me for spiritual advice. She wanted to find out who her spiritual guides were and what her purpose in life is. I expressed to her only she would be able to find out these things all I could do is help her find ways and rituals that might help her. The next day I got on my computer looking for spiritual poems and this poem was the first one that popped up (Spiritual Guides). By me reading this poem to my friend she realized what she had to do to accomplish the task at hand. This poem was not just a poem it was the answer to her questions. With all my being thank you for this. This poem was sent to me by god trough you. Once again THANK YOU!!! You have enlightened me BLESSED BE.
