The LGBTQ history, is no surprise to anybody

Who is aware of the uprising

That helped forge the recognition of Gay Pride.

Like all marginalized populations

Both past and present

They demonstrated and made clear what they represented.

The harassment of the many, born to follow their norm

Is represented by the colors within the flag.

A conscious, universally recognized symbol

Of the right not to conform.

History has confirmed that the oppressed,

Can and will unite to ensure their rights.

Every color of the rainbow and more, in all it’s various hues

Reminds us that we are unique, diverse and beautiful.

An inspiration to me and you.

To continue to be ourselves, around the world, old and new.

We openly choose who to love,

Just like all people do!
