Ode to Dr. Quo

Oh Dr. Quo
I feel so low and
My heart is now
So full of woe.

I put my retainer
Below a napkin
At a restaurant
while on the go.

My brain reacted slow
And not until too late
Did I know
That my retainer was going
To the dump and far below.

I hope this poem
May show
I suffer woe
And be a future lesson
To other children –
Who may think slow.

“Never leave
Your retainer below
A napkin while you’re
On the go.”

Lessons learned (PG-13)

I had my retainer
On my lap,
Scooted forward
Heard a snap,
And then thought,
“Oh crap!”
