Pink Is O.K.

don't you just love 
the skin your in?
dimples on your cheeks 
when you smile and grin
light and darkness make beauty begin
blending  elegance and cuteness
from forehead to chin
your eyes
for the very first time i've seen
"The windows of the soul"
your hair 
I would prefer black or grey
but for now, i guess pink is O.K.
don't you just love the skin your in?
i do

A sweet poem, John! I guess pink is good on some. My daughter is a natural blond and she has tried several colors (Green and black for her coed frateranity colors).

Dear John: I like the rhythm in this poem. Flowed together nicely. Thanks for reading my poems, and Destiny. Glad you liked them. Much Love, Janice Herzog xoxo
