Ironic
A dentist
dressed
in white
My own
jumpsuit
of white
White
underneath
covering
the shame I felt.
My granddaughters
and mother
stand at the font
Backwards
I am dunked
By the dentist
I feel my feet
out from
underneath
I do not panic
I feel secure
in his, and His
support
Up from the
font
I am brought
Clean of my sins
a new life
to begin
I smile at
my granddaughters
and know
it was as much
for me
as it was
for them
Family IS forever,
Amen.
