Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme Royal

The Dentist's Drill

He didn't care if all his teeth fell out
The dentist's drill was just too much to bear
  
His wife and kids at him began to shout
You're acting like a child and you don't care
Your closest friends at you will stare and glare

Please scream at me, he begged, 'til I can't hear
And then the dentist's drill I'll no more fear!

Lindsay Laurie September 7, 2019 at 6:52 PM G'day Gershon … the dentist brings fear to many but comfort for others. In my state school days, the visiting dentist caused much anxiety, but for no reason apart from wanting to help. Thank you Gershon - Lindsay Gershon Wolf September 7, 2019 at 9:43 PM Thanks for the feedback, Lindsay. :) gw

Tom Cunningham September 6, 2019 at 12:48 PM I'm one of those that find the dentist quite relaxing, my wife would rather have a baby lol. Gershon Wolf September 6, 2019 at 3:20 PM Ha, ha. Exactly the same with my wife and me. Pretty funny. ~ gw
