Mike Gentile Poet Limerick

She Had Only One Tooth

And then she had only one tooth
         The rest had decayed, that’s the truth
Too much Christmas candy
No dentist was handy
         She lived all alone in Duluth

Of dentists, she was not a fan
         Guess that’s why she can’t find a man
One tooth has its perks
Just watch how it works
                  When she needs to open a can!
