A Lite-Pink Band In the Sky
A lite-pink band in the sky
midst powdery baby-blue
I thought to myself, 'But why?'
Does it herald the birth of a girl
cared for by five loving brothers
Or perhaps it's a cotton-candy twirl
Could it foretell an early flamingo season
one where the brightly colored birds
Flock up north here where it's still freezin'
Or maybe the sky is suggesting I buy --
so my girl's not infected with the blues --
A bouquet of pink roses as a surprise
And pray she doesn't ask, 'But why?'
