Life is a Celebration

Life is a celebration!
After day comes night
After night day again.
After birth comes death
After death birth again.
We celebrate birth
Why not death?
Like night and day
Life is renewed
Again and again.
We have never died
Will never die
This universe belongs to us,
We are here forever
Believe it or not!
This body we mourn
Is Maya or illusion
So let's clear our minds
From this sorrow,
This confusion
And celebrate life
Because
Life is a celebration!

Dedicated to my Mother Mrs Jaswant Kaur Grewal who visited Planet Earth from October 20, 1930 To December 9, 2004
