June Brides


© Tracey Ryan

Well, another June has come and gone, like so many new brides walking down the isle. I found this poem that I received while in Dental Hygiene School. To date, I have only met one hygienist that married a patient. I would love to hear your story if you married your patient or hygienist!

Ode To A Dental Hygienist

Hygienist, in your dental chair

I sit without a single care

Except when tickled by your hair.

I know that when you grab the drills

I need not fear the pain that kills.

You merely make my molars clean

With pumice doped with wintergreen.

So I lean back in calm reflection,

With close-up views of my complexion,

And taste the flavor of your thumbs

While you massage my flabby gums.

To me no woman can be smarter

Than she who scales away my tartar,

And none more fitted for my bride

Than one who knows me from inside.

At least as far as she has gotten

She sees how much of me is rotten.

Earnest Albert Hooton
