Orange, black, red and blue,

Which should I pick, what should I do?

She wanted to look mysterious and scary,

yet magically beautiful like a fairy.

I sat thinking of something in red and black

along with a golden glittery sack.

A pretty witch or vampire maybe,

or a combination of both probably.

I started stitching a beautiful black gown

that had a mysterious patch of red I had sown.

"It's done" I said with a sense of achievement,

she tried on the dress, the air filled with excitement.

Adding the glittery sack made her look like a devilish angel,

looking in the mirror she said "maybe a tiara and and a bangle?"

The final adjustments were almost done,

I tried hard to make her hair into the perfect bun.

She stood with all her friends who came

and I took a photograph fitting them all in one frame

They said goodbye and walked ahead

my baby among them in black and red.
