A mother has the right to nurse no matter when or where,
\nand should she do it openly the public shouldn’t care.<\/p>\n
Her baby is a person with a common right to feed,
\nand no mother should be forced to flee to satisfy that need.<\/p>\n
She should not have to run and hide to exercise her right,
\nher act of love and selflessness should be a welcomed sight.<\/p>\n
A restaurant or public park or anywhere we dine,
\nif safe for us and comfortable, should suit a nursling fine.<\/p>\n
A stuffy car or restroom stall are hardly sites to eat,
\nand no one would enjoy their meal while covered head to feet.<\/p>\n
It’s not like sex or being lewd, not meant to turn you on,
\nit’s not some gross disgusting act like going to the john.<\/p>\n
It’s not an act that should be shunned nor one that we should fear,
\nit is an act of sustenance that’s beautiful and pure.<\/p>\n
All those who balk or disagree should think before they speak,
\nthe arguments they hide behind are usually very weak.<\/p>\n
The studies show that mother’s milk withstands the test of time,
\nso babies getting what they need should never be a crime.<\/p>\n
For moms who nurse in public there is nothing more to say,
\nif you find the sight offensive then politely look away.<\/p>\n
The time has come for dirty looks and ignorance to cease,
\nso babies can enjoy their milk and moms can nurse in peace!<\/p>\n
