My Toofy Gwin

Tee-hee, I'm here again, jus' meef
          Wit' dimples shining, chub-chub cheeks
               Yous gotsta see my two new teef
     (Dough dey be dwibblin' lotsa leaks)

Me hasn't got no udders yet
          But dese is purrfect side-by-side
               Dey always shiny, white and wet
     (And sometimes get my tungy tied)

My bib is stain, dey make me dwizzle
          Fwum learnin' how to use 'em wight
               And when I talk my essez wizzle
     (Toof Fairy brung 'em late one night)

Fer sher can't wait to really use 'em
          Cuz mama says dey shine my chin
               How I gotsta bite and chew some
     Grow more dandies for my gwin

Oh how I wuv dese bwight new tings
          And mama wuvs 'em, I can tell
               She always waffs and always sings
     When I bite daddy ... make him yell!

G'day Gregory … at first I thought your heading referred to 'My Goofy Twin,' but was pleasantly surprised to read your delightful poem referring to a 'Toothy Grin.' Really enjoyed your humour - Lindsay
