All Hail to Gay Pride!

Hailstorm in May? Now, there's a thing!

Wisteria petals, nature’s 'bling',

Now lie scattered and forlorn …

A sorry, sodden mess at dawn!

 

Nature’s 'Ice Days' have gone by;

Today’s wan sun attempts to dry

My terrace; the process is slow,

But sturdy plants perk up and glow!

 

Meanwhile, the wind exerts a chill

I poke my nose out; it is still

Far too cold for month of May;

Our weather patterns here are fey!

 

On Saturday the STIB curtails

Many bus routes, 'Pride' prevails!

Where lively cohorts take a stand

And a vast parade is planned.

 

For thirty years on Brussels scene

With “inclusion” as its major theme,

Downtown Brussels will make way

For this ebullient display!
