Mine Poem by Lonnie Choate

Who takes me out of my cozy cot
and puts me on the ice cold pot
and makes me pee when I cannot
Me mudder

Who straps me in the kitchen chair
And loads the spoon with peas and pears
Mouth opens cause I see who's there
Me mudder

Who jerks me from the park just brought
And utters stuff bout what ought not
Bathtub bound all play forgot
Me mudder

Who loves me till the end of time
And turns all tears to nursery rhythms
All I know is she's all mine
Me mudder
