Little Girl Pink, Little Boy Blue

WHEN LITTLE BUNDLES OF JOY ARRIVE
WONDERFULLY TINY, FRAGILE AND NEW
IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE WHAT THEY ARE
LITTLE GIRL PINK OR LITTLE BOY BLUE

WITH TIPPEE CUPS IN THEIR TINY HANDS
LEARNING HOW TO EAT AND DRINK
DRIBBLY CHINS AND FOOD IN THEIR HAIR
LITTLE BOY BLUE AND LITTLE GIRL PINK

THE ADVENTURES OF GOING SHOPPING
CUTE CLOTHING AND BABY’S FIRST SHOES
MAKING SURE THE COLORS ARE RIGHT FOR
LITTLE GIRL PINK OR LITTLE BOY BLUE

WHILE YOU HOLD YOUR BREATH YOU PONDER
AS YOU HOLD THOSE DIAPERS THAT STINK
HOW CAN ANYTHING SO NASTY COME FROM
LITTLE BOY BLUE AND OR LITTLE GIRL PINK

SO SAFE, SECURE, AND ASLEEP IN YOUR ARMS
WRAPPED IN A BLANKET OF CORRECT HUE
SILENTLY YOU THANK THE LORD ABOVE FOR
LITTLE GIRL PINK OR LITTLE BOY BLUE
