Flowers dancing in the wind,
Their beautiful dresses flowing,
A celebration of life
And of everything growing!

Let us humans join the dance,
Our creativity employ
A celebration of life,
Our hearts bubbling with joy!

Take on life as a challenge,
Live it with a smile on your face,
A celebration of life,
Hanging on God’s loving grace…

Here we are, friends forever,
Together in love we will grow,
A celebration of life
And the truth we’ve come to know.

Ghost Writer,

Thanks... I know I have trouble with rhythm sometimes, so I'm glad this one was good.

Linda,

This was partly inspired by you, actually,  so I'm glad you enjoyed it!
