You're Mine - A Caregiver's Musings About Changing Time - An Alphabet Poem

[dlsafrica]

"Are you an adult or a

Baby? I mustn't forget to

Check for bulk; are you wet, WET, WET?

Diapered up with all the perks, to be

Encouraged - get your baby's worth; try to waddle - you 

Fall when

Gravity's bad (but we ALL win when your diaper sags) I

Hear that little (are you little? cool!) baby boys and girls

Ironically don't know when their diaper's full - is this

Just for jokes or are you really mine? My forever baby or are we

Killing time?

Lift your legs because you don't have strength

Make sure your diaper is the right length

Naturally fill the time with baby talk; fall

Over when you try to walk (don't worry I've got you)

Powdered up. Pacified, you

Question the world with learning eyes

Ready to exert control, but mommy needs to 

Say "you're mine" - mommy hovers, mommy cuddles - no private

Time

(Unscheduled checks till you next need a change)

VIP treatment with a stiff upper lip... why don't you 

Waddle - don't forget to

X amine

Your... oh sorry - mommy forgot you don't have a 

Zip

Alternate -- it was either zip or change that wasn't going to rhyme - not that poems need to rhyme; it just works better for a little baby to hear
