ever in the spirit of pride

the 11 of 12 given words:
lessons home essence ever spirit flight 
flitting (move swiftly and lightly)
place passions spiral god

it accords good lessons 
brings home the essence of honor

ever in the spirit of pride
very much like a lion's golden mane
or a peacock's colorful feathers
a crowning glory

a little inconvenient in flight though
flitting from place to place
requires a passion for movements
but it is exquisite
worthy of blessings in a million

it need not be spiral
perfect as it is
it may get in the way
but to stall predators at a safe distance
it is good defense

god's creation
one of its kind
