To God Almighty
For the energy,
Wisdom and patience,
Love and good conscience.

To my family
For the dignity,
Faithfulness and loyalty,
The courage to face life’s journey.

To Horizons
For the compassion,
Sense of belonging and home,
For the power of positivity
That gives light to everyday’s difficulty.

To my good friends
For friendship that never ends,
Teaching me humility and giving
Good companionship and learning
True colors of the world within.

To my bashers
For providing answers
To the differences,
Everyone’s preferences,
Equality and for growing my experiences.

To my partner
For loving me forever,
Never gets tired
Of understanding me and loyalty never collides.
I love you till my life subsides.

MERCI is not enough
For coloring my life,
For all the wonderful blessings.
My life is amazing!
