Unus pro omnibus, omnes pro uno
The world many colours and tints does offer
From the spectrum of myriad hues
They chose a blue for me somehow
And my friend, a pink for you
Cars, toy guns, bat and balls
Would make for my childhood play
The little girl in her pigtails and curls
With tea sets and dolls spent her days
I was a “man” of brute strength
Bold and brave, must not cry,
Not back out of a good fair fight
Look my rival in the eye
I could be a knight in shining armour
But what they did not know
That princess in the ivory tower
Was not where my heart would go
The Lancelot sought no Guinevere
But King Arthur would he claim
Unfettered by social shame or norms
His spirit free, unashamed
The luminous white within itself
A rainbow spectrum does enshrine
Once filtered through the eyes of love
Each colour the other outshines
Every feather added to the wing
Lends its power to the whole
The whole of us rely on each of us
And each multiplies the strength manifold
Life Gets Better Together Quintessentially
Raising us to be more than we can be
Unus pro omnibus, omnes pro uno
On iridescent wings my soul soars free
