A Simple Visit

Trying to get myself together, I book my dentist appointment. In the waiting room I sit. Finally, they call me, I sit on the all familiar dentist chair. Looking up, the light shines on my eyes, Giving my headache advancement, I close my eyes. Suddenly they speak of cavities. “Would you like to get fillings today?” they ask. Sure, I thought aloud. They numb my mouth, Nothing I felt, they asked me one more question. “Would you like the gas to feel more comfortable?” “Yes please”, I replied. Next thing you know I am gazing off, It leads to my mind wondering, I feel strange. Images of all my emotions pop up, They start to seem more real. I am off into a deep sleep, Me sitting in a chair carrying my son, He opened his longing eyes, My heart felt the joy of this dream. I was rocking him so peacefully, My little angel came to me in a deep sleep. I wake from the drilling of my teeth feeling at peace, The dentist told me of how peaceful I seemed, Moreover, of how tired I must have been that I fallen asleep. No idea they had of how restless I was, Nor that I am a grieving mother who had just lost a piece of her heart. I did not expect to had left the dentist feeling happy, I had a vision a created memory that put me at peace. Crazy you might think but I look forward to my next dentist appointment. ~My son Bael forever in my heart and if I’m lucky in my dreams he will visit me~
