Thé New order

Lois Price 1957 (Burnley)



So i was wondering just how it would be if we had a fantastical imaginative family tree..

If some were blue or orange or green. With two heads perhaps
Or things unseen..

...belly buttons in différent places
Ears or noses that could sée..

Would any of us really bother if we were kind and just loved eachother..

Some might fly or others prefer to be undercover in quiet places that gave them spaces just to be

And other things not at first sight
Skills we judge or judge to be
Would we stop using they/he/she
Should behave like that or this or be.

Would respect and tolérance grow wild and free .
An Amazing fantastical family tree
