Dental Drama

A tiger tooth puller named Keith
Growled, Donkey I must check your teeth
Donkey started to bray
Saying, "Don’t block my way
I’m needing urgent pain relief"!

Duke Beaufort Date: 7/23/2024 4:41:00 PM Jan, this is cute. I'm wondering if the donkey is a stand in for a certain democrat who was not able to think clearly. BTW, I have a dentist appointment tomorrow. It's routine, but I will be thinking of the poem and image you have for sure while in the chair. You have a great sense of humor!! Login to Reply

Tom Cunningham Date: 7/6/2024 10:47:00 PM Lol, think I'd put up with toothache rather than let Tiger Keith anywhere near my mouth. Tom Login to Reply Jan Allison Date: 7/11/2024 10:17:00 AM LOL thanks Tom!:-) hugs Jan xx

Eileen Manassian Date: 7/6/2024 1:45:00 PM Oh Jan! Great poem. It goes well with the picture prompt. Who would trust a tiger tooth puller, eh? Good luck in the contest. Login to Reply Jan Allison Date: 7/11/2024 10:18:00 AM thanks Eileen - especially one called Keith lol:-) hugs Jan xx

Beryl Edmonds Date: 7/6/2024 10:56:00 AM Good one Jan, I had a tiger tooth puller once, I felt him take my tooth out, the injection hadn’t had time to work, I had a hunch it was time for his lunch… Beryl Login to Reply Jan Allison Date: 7/11/2024 10:19:00 AM OUCH Beryl, we had one who was more like a lion than a tiger and gave me dental phobia for years:-( hugs jan xx

Regina Elliott Date: 7/6/2024 10:02:00 AM Hi Jan, superb dental poem. I hate even going for a check up, lol! My son-in-law needs to go back to the dentist, and it's going to be quite a challenge to get him to realize the wisdom in taking the step to go. Have a delightful Saturday. xox Login to Reply Jan Allison Date: 7/6/2024 10:25:00 AM I can sympathise as I used to have terrible phobia of going to the dentist and also for blood tests but i am now alba to go to both without any issue! hugs Jan xx

Mark Koplin Date: 7/6/2024 9:13:00 AM I would never think of a tiger as a pain reliever, especially one named Keith. Great limerick, my friend. Login to Reply Jan Allison Date: 7/6/2024 9:15:00 AM Lol Mark and look no mention of poop too lol:- Keith was a name I've used in other dental poems in my book as it rhymes so nicely with teeth lol :-) hugs Jan xx
