Today I sit here in pain
It is making me feel quite insane
I'm very unhappy
That I'm feeling so crappy
So I'm writing this limerick to complain.

I Hate The Dentist (National Poetry Writing Month 2026 #6) Leave a comment
Don't get me wrong,
I like MY dentist.
He's very kind and patient
While explaining why I need
Yet another crown
He's very skilled and attentive
While I lie back for
My torture session
He's got a wonderful partner,
A cat he loves,
And enjoys traveling the world
And oh, by the way,
I've got another tooth
In need of a crown
I leave with an empty wallet
And a sore, tingling mouth
I'll happily see him again
Because I really hate the dentist
But at least I like MY dentist

Broken Crown (National Poetry Writing Month 2026 #1) Leave a comment
Alas, the crown cracked
Scattering pieces around
Exposing weakness
As its reign comes to a close
I have to call the dentist

Crown (National Poetry Writing Month 2025 #24) Leave a comment
Heavy is the crown
That sits upon my tooth.
Temporary it may be,
But my tooth has a decree:
"Verily, this land will be cleansed!
Brushed with mint scented clouds,
Washed in blue floods of rain,
And ropes dragged through the streets!"
I acquiesce to his demands,
As I prefer a single monarch
With only a single crown.
