Be sure to guard your pearly whites
To brush and floss in morn and night
It’s easy when you’re in your youth
To take for granted every tooth.
But day will come when you will find
Toothaches will make you lose your mind
They ache and throb, your face will swell
You’d swear you’ve died and gone to hell
Take them for granted? Don’t you dare!
You’ll miss them so, when they’re not there!

:D Thanks Alex. I’ve been trying to get a good picture of my new smile with my cellphone, and they all just look so bad. My cellphone just won’t take a good picture at all. Maybe my daughter can do it later with hers. :)

Thanks Skye. :) Yes, somehow I think that’s a fake pic, looking closely at it. Which is why I posted it, because I would’ve felt badly posting a real one of someone. That could’ve been me! (lol)

Now that is my laugh for the morning! I love, love, love the humorous way you approached this one! I see a book of humourous health poems for children in this! Dr. Seuss move over Ann Sikes is about to become Grandma Anne, darling of Children’s Verse Books with a moral!
