Hi Linda. I enjoyed reading this humorous (but a little bit "yucky") tale. It rhymes well and gives a giggle. It's interesting from start to finish. Linda Engel's art is a good accompaniment. Marilyn

So glad you enjoyed this little step back in time. They were all yucky in London in those days. Thanks for the R&R. Best regards Linda.
Comment from dragonpoet
This is gross all ways around. Taking things off the dead and using them. Especially dentures. It sounds like a good way to get sick. She should see through Sam's try at being nice as being greedy. She will find a way to eat it herself. So this is to add background to a favorite character in a favorite book.
The poem reads quickly and smoothly with its octets.
Keep writing

Back in those days nothing went to waste. The first false teeth were actually made of wood and so could be altered to fit. As only the rich could afford them they were a very profitable second hand commodity. Thanks for reading. Best regards Linda,

You're welcome. I am glad we don't have to share dentures and don't have to worry about termites in our mouths (totally gross).

Hi Linda, absolutely loved this excellent rhyming story of Bill Sykes and the laughable set of dentures, I love stories in poems so this one made my day my friend.

HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA, I was giggling throughout this whole thing, and you have me laughing loudly by its end. Though causing one to want to say my favorite phrase "EW!", it was to funny to make it a gross poem, plus the rhyming and the flow were excellent. What a great poem, good job!!
Thank you for sharing and for the laugh!

Comment from Gypsy Blue Rose
Hello, my friend,
LOL your poem is funny in a way in a disturbing and gross way.
I love Oliver Twist. I remember watching the movie years ago. The story was awesome and the music was outstanding.
The plot is about the true meaning of love but also cruelty. The way children were abused and exploited in that era was unbelievably horrifying.
Good job!

I have always been a fan of Charles Dickens and love all his books. My favorite character of his is Ebenezar Scrooge in A Christmas Carol. Thank you for the review. Best regards Linda

What can I say? This is simply excellent!!! Loved the flow the content the rhythm and rhyme...all appropriately dispensed throughout! Great job. Too bad this is not a contest entry into some humor relative piece as this would be a great contender! Loved it. God bless and hugs, Susanne

Comment from frogbook
This is a humorus and funny take for this poem. The sharing of dentures-oh my-haha. Not something we would all write a poem about yet yours was the perfect meter and flow and went with the topic like....well beef and soup, I suppose.

Comment from joannakruk
Haha oh dear how caring but how disturbing and gross. That really is a manifestation of a deep love of another. I guess that it's all about being functional today. If one can help another, why hold back right?
Thank you for the laugh.
Great flow with this poem. Jo :-)

I could not even borrow my husbands toothbrush, so there's no way I would borrow his teeth. Thanks for reading. Best regards Linda.
Comment from Dean Kuch
U-h-h-h-h-h-hhhh...in a work, YUCK!, Linda.
And people say MY poetry is sick and disgusting?
Hah!
I ain't got nothin' on this!
I will say this for you, however. This is the second poem I've read of yours in the past...oh... hour or so, give or take a few minutes. Your rhyming, timing and flow in both, when read aloud, is impeccable.

Comment from ESchmitz
A little weird and the rhythm is a bit 'loose' but all together a good poem. I suggest looking at the syllable count for meter or something similar. You have the ability.
