Today — I celebrate who I am
No matter the colour of hair
No matter the colour of eyes or skin
No matter the clothes I wear
I celebrate where I am today
Road taken or left behind
I celebrate being lost and then self-found
And the thoughts that whirl in my mind
I celebrate my walk, my pace
That distant finishing line I see
And the time it is taking for me to know
My dream and my destiny
I celebrate all my ties and bonds
Some strengthened and some frail
The language of hearts - spoken, unspoken
Some poetry, some prosaic tale
I celebrate my wants, my hopes
My failings - and all that I couldn't be
I celebrate what I may become tomorrow
I celebrate - unapologetically
I celebrate my aches, my tears
My fears, what judgements...why justify?
And grateful for little joys and blessings that I have
Today, I celebrate I
