Nursing- By “Dr. Angie Seuss”
I love to nurse, oh yes I do
Should I stop before he’s 2?
I can’t decide, because it may be
My favorite way to bond with baby.
It’s been easy to nurse wherever we wish-
Like in a car or in a house or even by a tank of fish-
Or on a train or on a plane
under an umbrella in the rain.
In a field and on a boat
Anyplace that is remote.
Nursing always removes a sad frown-
If I didn’t do it, would I ever sit down?
But, alas, it is now time to wean
Even though it makes me feel mean.
I’ve felt sort of emotional and weepy
But maybe my days will feel less sleepy.
I’ve so enjoyed this special chore
My life has been anything but a bore.
So, nursing I now bid you adieu-
And will never forget all the wonderful things we went through!

Angie, that was GREAT...OUTSTANDING!!! I always knew you were such a talented writer and that your love of poetry began way back, with both Seuss and Shel Silverstein (sp?)and I'm sure many others. What was so beautiful was how perfectly you described the whole "nursing" experience, and then summed up -exactly- how so many nursing Moms feel... me for sure! It's a bond that lasts forever!!(bitter/sweet!)Thanks for expressing it in such a unique way!LUV-U!M...
