Each day the spirits of the dead keep watch over us.

Each day

The spirits of the dead

Keep watch

Over us 

- – -

They know our waking moments

See our faults

Give us courage

And protect us

- – -

You may not know it

But they protect us

Defend us from adversity

Walk and talk to us

- – -

All we have to do

Is to listen

Open our minds

And hearts to their promptings

And you’ll witness

Great transformations

In your lives

- – - 

For these spirits are 

Not meant to work

Against our free will

But to help us

Traverse  

The difficulties of life

By bringing  comfort

- – -

You may not know it

But they give  

Peace of mind

- – -
