Pride's Defiant Dawn: The Stonewall Saga

Brave hearts beat, burning bright,

Defiant dreamers dared to fight.

Greenwich's gritty streets saw strife,

Queer queens quelled quiet, cowed life.

Stonewall stood, strength surging forth,

Cop's clubs crashed, courage came north.

Riots raged, rights were reclaimed,

Voices vast, no more restrained.

History's hinge swung swift that night,

Pride paraded, powerful, bright.
