Good news

Counting success where I may.


Good news emerges
From unexpected places.
Today:
From the dentist.
Yes I have a cavity
Yes there is some bone loss
Around one tooth.
But
The root canal I got
Years ago
Is well-settled,
And
My molar roots
Are 25 percent longer
Than most.
This is apparently
Amazing good news.
I am successful at something
I hadn*t considered
Up until now.
Long roots are good.
I never would have known
If I had not gone
To the dentist.
Long roots are good.
Mine are long.
Good news emerges
From places
Unexpected.
