Celebrations
The world is full of celebration; celebration is what we all do want.
Chance left to act everything falls into a celebration mode; young or old,
Living in regions hot or cold, the soul wants to go into celebrations bold.
But. There’s a but here. There are those who celebrations taunt.
Desire to dance may not lead to dance. Spirits could be low by deed or chance.
Nothing may excite, nothing we may want; even a trip to Switzerland or France
May make the subject hate his life, unmoved by his friends or generous aunt.
Celebrations, festivals and carnivals are for those whose souls can show up like
Dolphins above grievous seas, hop out for moments; over mountains hitch-hike.
Celebrations are what we want; to forget what is our lot; what is not to flaunt.

I read somewhere that it the Hindu religion has the most celebrations. I don't know if it's true, but the United States, regardless of its separation of church and state, has embraced several religious holidays for us to celebrate.
