What happens when your teeth fall out? This afternoon I sat down to take a break with a cookie and a glass of tea. On the last bite one of my front caps popped off leaving me looking pretty scary. On Monday, I will see if my dentist can glue it back on before Halloween makes it permanent!! It is either laugh or cry, so for Frank Tassone’s Haikai today, it’s a Renga that hopefully will make you smile instead of cry!
All sad tricks today
Halloween came too early
Makes my dentist smile
Chewing cookies with cap apps
Made me a jack-o-lantern
Perhaps I should wait
Till the children come by
Give them a big smile
Making it a real fright night
No need to buy a pumpkin
With that toothless smile
Perhaps my candy will last
‘Till the last one screams
Running frightened down the street
More candy for me to eat
************
To rot out more teeth!!
