Challenge
Write a poem or a song for LGBTQ+ couples everywhere.
There aren't enough poems or songs for LGBTQ+ couples. So let's try and fix that. See if you can write a poem or a song for a same sex couple somewhere. Let them know that their love for each other matters.
Two *stars* orbiting a common center
There are stars in our midst
That we don’t always see.
Let’s illumine a tryst.
He and he become “we”.
There are trees, primitive.
Evergreen, from way back.
Two stars link, form a dream
Maintained long, as a pact.
There are joys. Sorrows, too,
As a lifetime unfolds.
Love will grow, ever new,
Family, richer than gold.
There is care, evident
When the time is well-measured.
Human kindness is spent
Sowing love where it’s treasured.
There are smiles in our midst
That we don’t always see.
So we seal, with a kiss,
When this love comes to be.
