Dreamt I had no teeth
Woke up startled
Bit down making sure
They were there
Yes they were
None had fallen out
Or disappeared
Got me to thinkin
What if it were true
Who could I talk to
Could God hear my Prayers
How could I shout
Out for joy
Or scream and holler
And even whisper
Wow what about food
Crunchy chicken mashed potatoes
Homemade cookies or pie
Even homemade soup
A salad and fruit
Ran downstairs for hot tea
And marmalade toast
Had to get a pen
To write out a poem
And then say oh look
It's a covid nightmare
