One Word, Celebration

One-word contest begged participation.
     Putting my mind in acceleration,
     I entered with the word - celebration.

     Ordinary days need jump starts. I see
     each day as an excuse for a party.
     Salute relationships hot and hearty.
 
     It takes some effort, commemoration -
     sharing food, fellowship, fabulous fun.
     Stay six feet apart and keep your mask on.

     What did we celebrate September 5th?
     Derby's Velazquez, Authentic's horsesmith
     and National Cheese Pizza Day, forthwith.

Bobby May's One Word Contest. My one word originally won a second place however one word is not enough to qualify as poetry.

thanks, Jan, pure luck to pick a word that Bobby liked. Can't imagine judging a contest of one words.
