Poem for my son

By Katy Kat

Ode to (Breast) Milk

Oh, milk!

Oh, sweet milk,

Oh, sweet precious milk.

Does your suckiling babe seek your nourishment?

Does he whimper at your breast?

Mewling like the kitten,

O' howling as the pup?

Behold!

The breast,

The beautiful breast,

The beautiful milk filled breast.

Oh, milk!

Oh, sweet milk

Oh, sweet precious milk.

Does your suckling babe seek your nourishment?

Does he pat your breast?

Making desperate piggy sounds,

O' squeaking like the mouse?

Behold!

The breast,

The divine breast,

The divine milk filled breast.

Oh, milk

Oh, sweet milk,

Oh, sweet precious milk.
