Teeth Tales - Grandfather's Choppers

Our grandfather is
ninety-nine years old.
Though not yet hundred, 
he is on the threshold.
 
We have put up buntings
and 99 red balloons;
cooked his chosen biscuits,
coconut macaroons.
 
With his false teeth
they are difficult to eat
but for the old codger
they represent a treat.
 
It cannot be denied
that he has a sweet tooth,
he'll never tire of caramel
and that's the gospel truth.
 
We have made little cakes,
each with a cherry on top;
he'll devour every crumb,
no one can make him stop.
