Celebrate

Author: Bisilda Hakilia, Maryhill Integration Network

Celebrate that should be celebrated,
or celebrated that I must celebrate…
Celebrate with joy because,
she celebrates with my laughter.
I celebrate with my pain because,
she celebrates with my tears on my face.
I celebrate with my illness because,
my body is wrapped by pain.
I celebrate with my fatigue because,
it hands me in my bed for rest.
I celebrate with my boredom because,
it encloses my brain as a shell without light.
Celebrate with my life as a beautiful package with
all the feeling involved in it…
