Celebrate

I celebrate the sky and the sun and the moon.

I celebrate the grass and the flowers in bloom.

 

I celebrate the light and the dark on the earth.

I celebrate death and a baby’s new birth.

 

I celebrate love in all of its forms.

I celebrate lifestyles outside of the norm.

 

I celebrate kindness, compassion and generosity.

I celebrate humanity, unity and reciprocity.

 

I celebrate animals and birds and fish.

I celebrate oceans and wet morning mist.

 

I celebrate dogs and cats who keep us Zen.

I celebrate here and gone, family and friends.

 

I celebrate angels and spiritual masters.

I celebrate guides who evolve us faster.

 

I celebrate color and beauty and style.

I celebrate art that makes the heart smile.

 

I celebrate parents, teachers and education.

I celebrate books, music and innovation.

 

I celebrate houses and buildings - small and tall.

I celebrate the pyramids and the mighty Great Wall.

 

I celebrate diversity and difference of opinion.

I celebrate all races, genders and religions.

 

I celebrate adults and children and teens.

I celebrate elders who deserve to be seen.

 

I celebrate freedom to speak and courage to create.

I celebrate control of my body and choice of my mate.

 

I celebrate every woman and divine femininity.

I celebrate human dignity and endless possibilities.
