Pink is the color
Of white and red
Innocence and passion.
Pink is baby's color.
Smooth pink.
soft pink.
Pink of infant faces.
Pink of baby smiles.
When you were a child,
Pink was your color
For combs and brushes
Hair clips and tiaras
Pink toes in white sand
Pink flowers
And the special pink
Of rabbit ears and noses.
It was then
That you began
To experience
the inside stirring
Carmine sensations
In the springtime
Of love.
Now
You are a woman
And pink is your color.
You are
In love with your self
For the first time
In your life.
With love enough
to share with a man
A child
A family and friends
And all the loved
And loving ones
Who inhabit this
Abundant earth.
Yours is
An overflowing
And generous love
Glowing
In your face
Your eyes
And the gentleness
Of your touch.
Glowing for all of us
From your womanly heart
Like the reddening blush
Of sunrise
And the color
Of pink roses.
