I love pacifiers


Ode to a pacifier

Biting, munching, sucking, chewing
always soothing
though small, you are sturdy and hold up well
even when my little one starts to yell
taking my place to soothe and quiet
so I am not the only diet
pacifier, pacifier without you I'd be lost
we will not lose you at any cost
and when my little one has grown too tall
I'll hang you on my tree to recall
that happy, busy, crazy season
of pacifiers, diapers, and two-year-old reason.

  3. Love it! My son never took a pacifier (not for lack of me trying to give him one)! We'll see what this 2nd baby does.

  5. Lol! Line 6 is the best. ;-) I know that feeling! (Lucy refused to take one by about 8 months, so I WAS her only pacifier. x-p)

  7. Loved it. My 2 yo is a paci addict. It is so nice when I can use it to calm her down, but not so nice when she is screaming for one in the car and I can't reach it :)
