Pink is pastel red

01-quee-pink

Pink is pastel red,
divergent.
The taste of pink is cotton candy
sweet.
Dissolves in your mouth,
rots your teeth.
The sound of pink is giggles,
carnival games.
The feel of pink is soft
thin ribbon.
Pink is innocence,
kind and sweet.
Substance of a dream.
Short attention span.
Young.

I was around seventeen or so when I painted this. I turned it into a series but none of the subsequent efforts were as successful as this one.
