We dance in celebration of the life we have been given
                            of the body we possess of the prayer we profess
                             of the hope of our collective consciousness
                             in the spirit of agape spreading love and respect
                             from the depths of our imagination
                             we have learned to speak in more ways than one
                             poetry and motion with the spoken and written word and
                             the sacred and soulful song to the beat of the drum and
                             the beat of the heart within the works of art and
                             creation of which we are all one
                             made in the image of our creator
                             creating community, forming families,
                             bringing birth and beauty,
                             making new meanings
                             with each new morning
                             . . . awaken . . .
                             dance in celebration
                             move in inspiration
                             live in appreciation
                             for the gifts of your creation
                             for what you have been given
