Virtual Pride (GWR)

Ribbons of colour stream from every train and station

Forming solidified alliances, a sense of elation

Celebrating in style via GWR

While others walk, travel by bus or by car

 

Thundering footsteps marching through streets

Whilst crowds of spectators’ wave at their seats

Flags of many held proud in the air

A demonstration of support, a show of care

 

Prides of plenty, held in various forms

Justice prevailing through vigorous storms

A union of people in person or online

Where every individual is encouraged to shine

 

Our global need for kinship brings us together

Beauty in acceptance bound in tether

A right to exist and come as we are

Irrespective of our journey, irrespective of how far

 

Until rivers run rainbows and wash over sand

With affection overcoming the hate in the land

A time where love is love, and being you isn’t wrong

We’ll continue to celebrate, we’ll continue to march on
