Dentist, Where’s My Sticker?

I didn’t fidget

I didn’t move a muscle

I didn’t wriggle

Nor put up any struggle

I was brave and bold

And the nurse agrees

So dentist, where’s my sticker please?

I didn’t ‘lose it’

I wasn’t feeling frantic

I didn’t holler

Or scream aloud in panic

I was real mature

Like most grown up men

So dentist, where’s my sticker then?

I didn’t lash out

I didn’t try and bite you

I didn't hit out

Kick, punch, pinch, scratch or fight you

I was still, serene

In a tranquil state

So dentist, where’s my sticker mate?

You prodded my gums

While mauling all my molars

My heartbeat galloped

As you scraped my incisors

You injected me

And even drew some blood

So dentist, where's my sticker bud?

I didn’t complain

I didn’t pass out either

Or leap from your chair

And run away and leave ya

Thought you made a vow

Thought we formed a pact

So dentist, a sticker - or I’ll NOT be back!
