Dentist Visit
DENTIST VISIT
I need to visit the dentist
my appointment is today.
A piece of tooth has broken,
must be repaired without delay.
Oh how I dreaded the dentist
when visited in times past.
I had to pluck up courage
to be rid of the pain at last.
I have a fear of needles
though they're a necessity,
as able to numb the gum
and then explore the cavity.
I recall that awful sound
from one that is loud and shrill,
the tool a dentist uses
when working that horrid drill.
I'm ready for the dentist,
I no longer fear or shake,
for the tooth to be repaired
sits on my dental plate.
