A Tooth

Henry has a tooth, forsooth, And he’s as proud as punch, Although he’s not exactly Eating pizza for his lunch. The most amazing thing to me Is that he knows it’s great And though I am his Nana, I do not exaggerate. It’s just his first, so there’ll be more With which to bite and chew, But everyone’s excited By this baby tooth debut.

Very good Ilene, I remember my grandchildren when they got their first tooth, they get so excited, I always remember when my son got his first tooth, I was feeling around for it and he clamped down on my finger so yes I found it and my eldest boy bit me on the Bum, so yes I remember, very good poem my friend.......Take care.......Vera.....
