Gapped Tooth

I saw him as I was driving to work

I quickly recognized him

I slowed down and smiled

I recognized him by his walk

“Hi” I bolted out smiling

I grinned hard

He replied “doc this is is the first time I have seen your face in real life”

I smiled hard

“You have gapped tooth too” he continued

“Yes I do” (no emoticons with gapped tooth)

Turns out we both do

Maskless we celebrate in smiles.

He walks like my dad.

Almost 80.

Oh the little joys!

Of being a neighborly doc!

Gapped teeth and all.


In health,
