“Raven’s Spirit”

This art piece reflects the Raven’s role in Native American culture as a messenger, guide, and keeper of wisdom. Symbolizing mystery and protection, the Raven Spirit reminds us that even in darkness there is guidance, carrying stories, dreams, and light to those who seek its presence.

RAVEN SPIRIT

Grandfather, tell me, who is the Raven?
I see it fly high in the dark sky.
Is it a bird or a spirit watching?
Does it hear me when I cry?

Oh, little one, the Raven is wise,
Keeper of secrets, watcher of skies.
It flies in dreams and speaks to the land,
Guiding your heart with a gentle hand.

Grandfather, what does the Raven do?
I saw it once when the winds blew.
Does it bring stories from long ago?
Does it know the things I don’t know?

Oh, little one, the Raven brings light
Even when all the world feels night.
It shows us paths we couldn’t see,
And helps our spirits to fly free.

Grandfather, what about my Dreamcatcher?
It hangs above me like a feathered dancer.
Is the Raven hiding in its threads?
Does it guard me while I’m in bed?

Oh, little one, the Raven is near,
Catching bad dreams, chasing fear.
Inside the web, its wings unfold,
Bringing you stories brave and bold.

So when you sleep and dreams appear,
Know the Raven Spirit is always near.
With feathers dark and eyes so bright,
It watches you all through the night.
