Many boys like cars,
Race cars, trains and dinosaurs... Shh!
So do I.
But playing with them in front of friends
Makes me feel really shy.
“That’s a boy’s toy.”
Ollie told me.
Many boys like blue
Blue clothes, blue stuff and blue some more... Shh!
So do I.
Blue is my favourite
There is no reason why.
“That’s for boys.”
Kayden told me.
Is it really okay
To like the things many boys like?
But! But! But!
I am not a boy.
Dolls, bricks, puzzles and sticks
I like them too
But my friends don't see...
And so
I keep this a secret
My special toys at home
Play, only alone...
Till one day
Mama told me
“That’s pretty cool”
And she played with me
Her greys showed her wisdom
Her actions comforted me
Perhaps one other day
I will iron out my thinking
Until then
A secret still it will be
