The message is loud
A crocheted companion
A somber reminder that homophobia kills

It can all be a bit much for the younger ones
Spectators of all kinds
Kaikille tilaa rakastaa

A cute plush
Spreading the rainbow
Itsemääräämisoikeus nyt
Happy families
Protesting against the current trans law
Remembering what Stonewall really was
One is grumpy, the other is astonished
A pride decoration by Mother Nature
A sparkly celebration

Flower-garbed spectators react
Dressed to impress
God created diversity
Tack Gud jag är homo

Here, queer, filled with existential fear
