My Sweet Tooth| Poem by Drishana,13,Chennai
Love sweets? Do watch out and don’t eat too many, writes 13-year-old Drishana from Chennai
The teeth which shined,
Was haughtily mine ,
That pale shade of white ,
Added to my delight .
But now when I see ,
It looks like wounded knee ,
With some black cavity ,
Disabling me to glee .
Sweets and chocolates ,
Toffees and marmalades ,
They are the reason ,
I faced this treason .
It was time to return that glow ,
I brushed my teeth ,
For three minutes in a row ,
My toothpaste acting as a sheath .
And now when I smile ,
It is spotted from miles ,
I am allowed to glee,
Which people can see .
