This area on Dundas is definitely worth a mention
Flags in the air waving back and forth in the breeze
Welcomes you to the shops with a comforting ease
Vibrant and welcoming are words thrown around
About this part of the city which resembles a town
Music in forms of culture, horns from cars, or shouts
Shows the differences in people all out and about
One specific group who found community
Are those that are proudly part of the LGBT
Acceptance of alternative shops can be found
West Side Stories only rents dvds, nothing that needs to be rewound
The BIA has been formed and plans are in place
To make the area pretty with murals is all in good taste
In the future plants will pretty the street
As for now there is only a lot of concrete
Lively events are held at Lula Lounge
A popular place where almost anyone in the neighbourhood can be found
It’s the first place one realtor takes her clients
As she is sure it’s a landmark that no one can miss
Affordable housing is attractive to most
Large high-rises and skyscrapers this place does not boast
It is not trying to become Church and Wellesley
But there are hopes of welcoming even more diversity
A safe haven some call free from prejudice
Where different demographics of people can certainly coexist
The Dundas streetcar will show you the way
To a place of tolerance those that live there dare say
