See me taking care-
burning for your needs-your growth-
diminished-enriched.

Keep the baby dry and fed.
Hold and clean
Breathing free.
Nurse the baby warm abed
Stroke and oil
Moisture be.
Wash and fold; clothe and wrap
Fresh and new
Menagerie.
At each sun-up, start anew:
Wash and clean and fold and cook.
Nurse that baby; keep her fed,
Warm and clean within her bed.
Taking care of baby will
Be taking care of you!
