In a vibrant world where the rainbow shines bright,
Lives a spectrum of genders, each one a delight.
From cisgender folks who stick to their start,
To trans friends embracing their true inner heart.

Lesbians laugh, loving women with grace,
Gay men beam in their love's warm embrace.
Bisexual hearts swing both ways in the breeze,
With a love that can bring anyone to their knees.

Transgender souls, brave and so true,
Redefining themselves in hues fresh and new.
Queer folks and questioning, breaking the mold,
In a quest for their truth, bold and uncontrolled.

Intersex beings, so unique, so rare,
Bodies defying the binary's glare.
Asexual pals, aces who find,
Love beyond bodies, in hearts intertwined.

Pansexual spirits, with love unconfined,
Hearts open to all, every gender in mind.
Demiboys and demigirls, in flux they flow,
Living between lines, in a beautiful show.

Agender allies, no gender they claim,
In a binary world, they play their own game.
Genderfluid friends, with identities that drift,
Changing like seasons, a magical gift.

From butch to femme, and all in between,
Each expression of self, creates a rich scene.
Pronouns aplenty, they/them, he/him, she/her,
Honouring them all is what we prefer.

Here's to the spectrum, so vast and so bright,
In the rainbow of genders, we find pure delight.
Each identity cherished, unique and sincere,
In the world of LGBTQQ+, all are held dear.
