Pink
It’s the faded ribbon twisted round her golden locks
Dips and creases of her ballerina dress
The giggles and coos her vocal cords sound
It’s the softness of her lips
The diluted blush on her cheeks
The sparkle in her eyes when she sees you
Comfort as your hands clasp hold
The praise and adoration your little girl gives
And the lovely explosions of flavour burst onto her tongue
As she happily indulges in the delicacies you prepared just for her
It’s anticipation and the heat radiating off a small tongue as she anticipates another spoonful
A crescendo of a squeal
Pride swelling within you
As you surprise your little girl with a cupcake for dessert
Cream of a babe piglet’s skin
Flamingo based crown adorned on top
It’s the muffled heartbeats she hears through your thick sweater
As you two sway back and forth
Her feet leaving light sore spots on top of yours
A trail of springtime butterflies you leave across your little girls stomach
Tenderness portrayed as you guide her through her beauty sleep routine
Peppa pig pyjamas you slip her limbs into Bubblegum toothpaste you make sure she scrubs her pearly whites clean with
It’s the promises you make with her of awaiting adventures when you both indulge in the usual bedtime brawls
The feathery whispers and softness of all the lovely monikers you whisper down her ears
With a kiss to punctuate each one
“ My cherry blossom, my cheer bear, my peach “
It’s the princess aurora nightlight emiting a dull glow
Framing both of your cheeks
The subtle stroking of your hand up and down your little girl's spine
The sleepiness that takes her into dreamland filled with unicorns and cotton candy castles
And a slumber that takes you with her
