We'll continue to share images and stories from this glorious night of celebration and inclusion over the next few weeks. Today, we give you one of our favorite collaborative poems written last night:
Better Together
Bound together like a sun shower.
Circle round - take care of one another
Like bird caring for other bird,
Inclusion is everyone's job.
I worry everyone darts for cover like rain.
Hope fog lifts - everyone sees clearly
We are all one.
Sports talk, I'm left out! Rainy gray mood.
A smile lifts me up, tall like a giraffe.
Like a joey in a kangaroo pouch, I feel held up
by your bringing food and hang-outs.
