I wrote a poem some days ago to Lord Anubis, and thought to share it here. HAIL ANUBIS!
King of the Underworld,
Guardian of the Veil,
He Who Counts the Hearts,
Protector and Shepherd of the Newly Departed,
Hail to Thee, Great Lord!
All the fallen, soldiers and peasants,
kings and slaves alike come to You.
There is no discernment, for all receive equal judgement.
Others look to You as a Father of Orphans,
Leader of Lost Souls in the Dark.
You are their Shining Light, even if You wear Darkness as a cloak
You are both Moon, Sun and Stars in the Underworld,
Others only need to look to the Heavens
to see Your face,
and be guided.
One is never alone
For You are beside those who feel lost.
Under Your charge,
Souls meet Their destination,
Your All-Seeing Eyes miss not one,
On all planes of existence.
Watcher of the Dead and the Living,
Silently passing through both houses of mortals
and the resting places of the deceased,
None escape Your gaze,
For You see all that is, that was,
And the destiny of each soul.
They come to meet You, in the end.
Grateful am I, one of the Living,
That You are Protector and Guardian over Satan's own.
For I have come close to Death many times,
but was pulled back by You and Lord Satan.
With unseen hands,
You teach me how to live and laugh,
How to smile again, despite the tears of self and world
that fall, conflicted, into an ocean beneath my feet.
The twin rising suns that are Your eyes
contains seas of wisdom and knowledge,
kindness and love,
compassion, justice, truth.
Even in life, as I would in death,
know there is peace,
and I am no longer afraid of death or dying,
if You are the One I meet at my journey's end.
Praise be to You, Lord Anubis,
Guardian of Souls,
He Who is Set Upon His Mountain,
Lord of the Westerners.
May You live forever and ever,
and Your name be praised by all.
May all come to know You.
