"Mom, when will I turn pink like you? "
A daughter asks her mother this,
Flamingos at Lincoln Park Zoo.
Still grayish white is the young miss.
The mother tells her daughter that
"All in good time you'll change, my dear, "
"And soon throughout the habitat"
"All pink grown up you will appear."
The daughter trusts her mother, so
She knows that one day she will be
An all grown up pink flamingo,
No longer grayish white ugly.
The mother smiles when she does think
Of her own yearnings to be pink.
Aspiration of a young daughter exquisitely crafted to an inspiring poem. Thanks for sharing X
