A very fine gentleman our Dr. Merren is

For a dental surgeon he’s certainly a whiz

So helpful and kind to all around

No finer person can ever be found.

With loving thoughts for his fellowman

And for his patients he’ll do all he can

And when we’re there in his dental chair

We’re at his mercy and in his care.

Our painted lips are stretched so much

But no need to worry he’s got a gentle touch

With the suction pump working overtime

We’ve been there an hour but we’re feeling fine.

 With our mouths wide open and he’s talking away

We’ll answer, “Gargle, gobble, um! Um!” What else can we say?

And whether it’s extracting a tooth or just filling one –

It’s certainly a relief to hear he’s done.
