Poetry Pride

Painted

The first poem in a daily poetry series for Pride Month 2022.

  1. Chipped. Peeling. Cracked.
  2. Faded. Gloomy. Shy.
  3. Hidden. Buried. Passed.
  4. Sullen. Shameful. Sigh.
  5. Rainbow hugging tightly.
  6. Warming up the cold.
  7. Fin’lly shining brightly,
  8. Vibrant, proudly, bold.
