CROCODILE patients come in with a Smile ~ I
REALLY do relish my job ! They
OPEN their jaws like Dinosaurs
CAUSING my warm heart to throb ! Keep
OPEN they should with a big log of wood
DON'T want them to bite off my hand
I'M A COOL loving hand ~ cares for their TEETH ~ They
LOVE ME and they UNDERSTAND
EVERY Old Croc ~ Teeth the size of a Rock ~ OK
CHIMPANZEES ~ they live in trees
HIGH above the ground
I STAND underneath and shout out ~ TEETH !
MAKES them come runnin' round
PERFECT grin from nose to chin
AND Monkeys ~ just like humans
NOW get a thrill when they see the DRILL
ZZZ ZZZ ZZZ ~ they love the buzzing sound
EVERY CHIMP's an incarnate IMP ~ BUT
EACH one I have found ~ is really a .....
SIMIAN ANGEL FAIR ~ asleep with Gas 'n Air !
Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN
When I was still at School ~ I wanted to be a VET !
I used to work in one on a Saturday Morning ~ cleaning
and making tea & coffee for the Clients. When someone
brought in a small CROCODILE with its jaws tied together
with a belt ~ I changed my mind and trained as an
Industrial Chemist instead ~ I love amphibians & snakes !

I HAVE to ask. Does someone really do this? I know about filing horses' teeth but crocodiles?
THANKS SR ~ Vets really do have to care for the teeth of their patients as part of the JOB including Crocodiles and Alligators ! Especially ones in captivity ~ visitors come to see a Nice Set of Shiny TEETH ! I have seen the feral ALLIGATORS in the Everglades in Florida awesome gnashers ! I have added a cartoon ~ of course the CROCS & ALLIS are always sedated in the Vet Dentists CHAIR ! Yours BRIAN
Amazing - I always thought the birds kept them clean - or is that just hippopotami! Anyway, I wish I could "feel" for crocs and alligators but the reptiles leave me cold - I think of them as the psychopaths of the animal world.

Thanks STEVE ~ Pleased you liked it ~ BRIAN
wow - who would ever want to reach inside the mouth of an un-sedated croc !! - - loved this informative acrostic Brian.
Thanks for your lively comment FAY. I know that the VETS who work in the Florida Everglades sure have to undertake Dental Work on the Gators who are an important Tourist attraction ! We were on an early Bird Watching walk in the Everglades and there was a 15ft Gator across the path ! The guide said "He's had his breakfast so just step over Him ~ BUT ~ don't touch his tail !" We did and he slept peacefully ! Yours as ever ~ BRIAN
Another good 'un Brian

Welcome
The cartoon does go well with your excellent poem, Brian. Or is it the other way round?
NO FRED ~ In this case ~ as a promise follow on to yesterday ~ I jotted down a few Tigers ~ Monkeys ~ Crocodiles and teeth seemed to recur ! I posted the Crocodile & The Monkey and then searched GOOGLE who came up with the Picture which I added ~ OK ! Sometimes the Picture does come first ! BRIAN
Good fun write Brian.
