Baby Girl Poem by Tribhuvan Mendiratta

Soft tender
White as milk
Ushered in under the whisper
"it's a girl! "
Wrapped in nothing
But pink outlooks
She screams
Life from first breath
Softness wrapped
Cotton candy kissed
Soft baby girl
Pink bunnies hide
Pink intentions scream
Words rounded
A baby born without the blue
Meant to sustain a life
She's a pretty picture
Hush! No one likes a girl
Who smirks as you touch her
But it's a mortal sin
To make RED baby-boy cry
Red is not pink
Be gentle! !
