Pink

Reminds him of piglets and bunny noses

Ballet slippers and dance parties with dad

Hide and seek in a one room apartment, pandemic style

Pink

My son's favorite color

I am glad we are at home this year

Glad that my son had a chance to like a color

And no one was there to ask him why a boy likes pink

Pink

Red and white, mixed together, just a color

A fun word for a three year old to type

The color of flippy floppy bunny ears

Pink

Is just a color that he gets to choose

With no one to say that he is wrong

Like purpose was when I was a boy and had to choose brown
