Happy Tuesday and hugs to all.

I had to visit the dentist yesterday, Ugh!. Reminded me of one of my favouite poems. Enjoy!

I Wish I'd Looked After My Teeth
by Pam Ayres
 

Oh, I wish I'd looked after me teeth,
And spotted the perils beneath,
All the toffees I chewed,
And the sweet sticky food,
Oh, I wish I'd looked after me teeth.

I wish I'd been that much more willin'
When I had more tooth there than fillin'
To pass up gobstoppers,
From respect to me choppers
And to buy something else with me shillin'.

When I think of the lollies I licked,
And the liquorice allsorts I picked,
Sherbet dabs, big and little,
All that hard peanut brittle,
My conscience gets horribly pricked.

My Mother, she told me no end,
"If you got a tooth, you got a friend"
I was young then, and careless,
My toothbrush was hairless,
I never had much time to spend.

Oh I showed them the toothpaste all right,
I flashed it about late at night,
But up-and-down brushin'
And pokin' and fussin'
Didn't seem worth the time... I could bite!

If I'd known I was paving the way,
To cavities, caps and decay,
The murder of fiIlin's
Injections and drillin's
I'd have thrown all me sherbet away.

So I lay in the old dentist's chair,
And I gaze up his nose in despair,
And his drill it do whine,
In these molars of mine,
"Two amalgum," he'll say, "for in there."

How I laughed at my Mother's false teeth,
As they foamed in the waters beneath,
But now comes the reckonin'
It's me they are beckonin'
Oh, I wish I'd looked after me teeth.

Sorry to hear that Hippie. Stay warm and snug sweetie. Here's anothe Pam Ayres poem to cheer you up.

I Am A Bunny Rabbit

by Pam Ayres

I am a bunny rabbit,
Sitting in me hutch.
I like to sit down this end.
I don’t care for that end, much.

I hope tomorrow’s Thursday,
‘Cause with a little luck,
As far as I remember,
That’s the day they pass the buck!
