Premium Member Tooth

Sharing hard candy with her best friend Shirley
Impossible task if deciduous teeth are lost prematurely
Although each child progresses in a different rate
My predecessor took its time as I came in a little late
I caused Chloé pain erupting—cutting through her gum
An icepack so frigid was chilling, making me numb
Chloés sneaky attempts to hide sweets in her room
Have cost her front baby teeth to come out to soon
Candy, I chomp up and bite down ‘til it’s in many pieces
Crunchy and noisy, sugar and saliva all over me releases    
A child should brush us teeth, at least twice per day       
And avoid sugary foods that promote tooth decay  
A stubborn child who doesn’t listen to mom's wise advice
Needs to be told over again, more than once more than twice
A sweet tooth like me never gives in and so, I have a chip    
Off to the dentist we’ll go, for a temporary behind Chloé’s sore lip!

Premium Member A Whimsical Tale

Here's a whimsical tale I've just concocted
From my wandering unbalanced brain
What's that you say? I seem totally normal?
Nothing different, silliness emotes again

Not sure there's help for this kind of mind
No pills can help, doc said try vodka
Strange prescription but he was totally at a loss
He's fully qualified but I don't think I oughtta

He then said try transcen-dental medication
That's for tooth decay, I wear falsies
Scratch that, perhaps I'll try writing poetry
Hang on! That's what I'm doing now, silly me

Maybe another cute whimsical tale will help
About creepy little critters who snort
Not their fault, born with only one nostril
Located inside your colorful shorts

Now how about that, that's kinda whimsical
Don't hear that in small talk at the office
More likely to hear who's messing with who
Or who's wearing those stinky socks

Seems like I'm at a loss to come up with an answer
To this strange predicament that afflicts me 
Everyone's stumped, people shy away think I'm nutso
Best to just let them babble on, most agree

Hey Babylon, there's a whimsical subject of sorts
Will do some research and get back to you
Far as me doth know it's a resort area in the Bahamas
Time for my pills, been nice talking at youse

He'll Kill Again

Loaded up with fats and starches 
Underneath the golden arches
I don’t know where I don’t know when
But Ronald McDonald will kill again.

Fooling all the girls and boys 
With crappy little plastic toys 
I don’t know where I don’t know when 
But Ronald McDonald will kill again.

Even the Amazon gets no relief 
From his desire for more cheap beef
I don’t know where I don’t know when 
But Ronald McDonald will kill again.

Corporate greed cannot be abated 
For far too long we’ve bloody waited 
I don’t know where I don’t know when
But Ronald McDonald will kill again.

So save your kids from tooth decay 
And listen to what I have to say 
Don’t even eat there now and then 
Or Ronald McDonald will kill again.

Premium Member A One Percent Fair To See

A trickling and discharging of these economic systems does weigh me.
A dribbling, and dropping of these little small paper colored green-backs.
A congress full of life-time professionals and political hacks,
and with a moral decline a tooth-decay black.

It does not matter if you have the highest of noted degrees.
The system is always on the verge of a catastrophe or a cold freeze.
You could know everything from A to Z.
Yet, only still to be tightly wrung through and squeezed.

A Corporate Cast system is the only thing that is real.
A theater casting calls of the first, then the last that's the deal.
The elites, and their enclosed franchise masked.
Is this fair or unfair or is it too hard to see.

This, to view, a carousel of toy ponies that are in a circle and phony.
It, an allusion like Fair; to be seen and this you will feel.
"Our only hope is in the Bible; its Truths and its highest Creeds."
"If and only when you truly do see it as a most highly sought of zeal."
"A one percent Fair; now in this world is seen; a pyramid slim scheme."

Premium Member Their Teeth Hurt

If you are fortunate to be able to have you and your
family's dental needs taken care of-
thank the good Lord when you pray,
because many in our midst cannot make a
dental appointment on any given day.
Men, women, children are struggling with
tooth decay, their teeth hurt,
dentists out there, I'm not trying to be curt.

The high cost of dental care leaves many
people in a tough situation,
this must be addressed more in our nation.
Some people have died of dental disease,
listen, dentists, please-
I know some of you are paying off student loans,
but this problem can't be left alone,
if you haven't already, try to fit into your time,
charitable dental work for those squeezing
every dime.

Some families make a little over the Medicaid
and other social health programs threshold,
but still need help, so may I speak bold-
perhaps some socialized dentistry, if that's
what it takes,
especially for the needy's sake.
For many, sitting in a dental chair has not
been in awhile,
and God wants everyone to be able to smile. ~

Bubble Gum Is Yummy Yum

Bubblegum is sweet and chewy
Blowing bubbles can get gooey
When it pops inside your hair
Trying to pull it out with care
Doesn't work neither does washing
SO scissors are used for forcing
Out this yummy ooey treat
That every kid loves to eat
Trident and Dentyne caress
Your mouth with a nice freshness
So people aren't scared away
It also helps with tooth decay
Bazooka Joe was really fun 
Comics wrapped around the gum
With funny jokes and prize points too
Gifts could be mailed to you
Zebra gum was full of rainbows
Colored bubbles you could blow
Different flavors in each stick
Finding your favorite was the trick
Chicklets are so cute and square
You could take them anywhere
In a box they are protected
The smallest gum that was invented
The best gum came in a pack
Of trading cards you could stack
And trade with all of your friends
Complete collections int eh end
People chew gum everyday
A trend that is here to stay
Being chewed so merrily
A treat that is happi8ly 
Part of everybody's world
But please don't be like the girl
Who was acting so stingy
And turned into a blueberry

When I'M Calling You

A Canadian Love Song

Like JFK with Edgar Hoover, 
I'm completely ill at ease: 
it's as if I'm in Vancouver, 
but I speak no Cantonese. 

A Mountie's boot must have its stirrup, 
they say Brooke Nevin needs a fattener: 
tooth decay loves maple syrup 
(look what it did for William Shatner!) 

I yearn for something quite profound, 
my very own deep inner need, 
just as Puget boasts its Sound 
and Calgary its Stampede. 

Like "foo" means nothing without "fighter", 
an ice rink's bare without a puck. 
Mike Myers lacks a decent writer: 
I think I need a cute canuck. 

I hope one day I will be ready 
(when Justin Bieber gets a life!) 
- Jeanette MacDonald, Nelson Eddy - 
to woo you as my Winnipeg Wife.

Premium Member My Tooth Fairies

I was six when I first had a tooth decay,
I spent squalling in pain almost the whole day;
When my mum brought me to a male dentist,
I ran away upon seeing his muscles and big wrist.

She took me back home and asked my dad,
“What shall we do with our child, she’s so coward?”
My dad patiently cuddled me as I sat on his lap,
“Take this aspirin my little girl, soon the pain will stop.”

While my dad was coaxing me,
He told me a tale of a tooth fairy
He made me believe that she will come at night
To replace my aching tooth---so new and white.

While I was attentively listening to him,
The soporific aspirin drew me to a sweet little girl’s dream,
The tooth fairy appeared real in my sight
In her silver gown and hair-dress,  dazzled me so bright!

She smiled at me and asked for just one wish,
She gently blew one big flying magic kiss,
Fruity- toothpaste’s  bubbles meander everywhere
As she waved her golden wand, fairy dusts filled the air.

I moved around stretching my arms with glee,
Jumping once and a while with the enchantment I see;
I giggled and screamed until my dad woke me up
I told him about my dream, my joy was on top.

Dad asked me to open my mouth to check my teeth
He found a new one coming out from underneath
My decayed milk tooth was moving to and fro
He tied and yank with a yarn…he was my dentist and a fairy, too.

The Sweet Shop

There's a shop down the street
where all the school kids meet;
a shop of wonders and delight
all wrapped up in one big bite

Step inside this tasty paradise,
take a bite of fudge, take another slice;
jars full of gobstoppers and pear drops,
and in the freezer icicle pops.

Exploding mouths full of tingling space dust,
an amazing taste and a sugar rush;
cola bottles, flying saucers, and lemon sherbets
white chocolate mice, drumsticks, and candy cigarettes.

Spending pocket money every day
not worrying about tooth decay;
a bagful of happiness just for a penny,
keeping close to the chest, not sharing any.

Time to go home and enjoy the feast,
just for a few minutes at least;
until tomorrow after school
to the shop we all thought was cool.
