What is Pink?

Pink is the colour of glistening lips,
Pink is the colour of cold finger tips.
Pink is the colour of candy floss you eat,
Pink is the colour of shimmering heat.
Pink is the colour of my rabbit’s ears,
Pink is the colour of fairies’ tears.
Pink is the colour of diamonds bright,
Pink is the colour of a starry night.
Pink is the colour of a bright pink rose,
Pink is the colour of a sea of flamingos.
Pink is the colour of bubble-gum,
Pink is the colour of my sore thumb.
Pink is the colour of a snorting pig,
Pink is the colour inside juicy figs.
Pink is the colour of a teddy bear,
Pink is the colour of a poodle’s fair hair.
