Kidney Awareness Month


You may or may not know that March is Kidney Awareness Month. A month set aside to acknowledge those who have been recipients or donors of kidneys. Today I had the pleasure of participating in a charity event entitled Celebration of Life. The proceeds from the event went directly to two families who have experienced kidney transplants. I wrote this poem in their honor....


Celebrate Life

The dictionary defines celebration

as “a joyful occasion, a joyous diversion.”


Celebrate good times, c’mon

Celebrate good times, c’mon

Let’s celebrate...”


Celebrate

Celebrate life


the day by day

joys and challenges

moments and memories

the journey


I wish that I could have this moment for life

Cause in this moment

i just feel so alive

Celebrate Jesus


Jesus is the way, the truth and the life

Jesus said, I have come the you may have life

and have it more abundantly


Celebrate Jesus, Celebrate

Celebrate Jesus, Celebrate

Celebrate YOU


You with arms that hold

Shoulders to lean on

Smiles that brighten up gloomy days

Hands that guide babies into this world

Drums that beat

Feet that dance the rhythm

Voices that sing His praises


Celebrate

Celebration


a jubilation

a jamboree

a festive event

a joyous occasion

A PARTY


a celebration of life

a celebration of Jesus

a celebration of you
