To My Allergist, Dr. Dutta
By Ruth Rin

To My Allergist, Dr. Dutta,
Who took-in all of my data,
And in my crisis (dental),
Your advice has proved instrumental.

Based on your knowledge and wit,
You nailed Acrylate as the culprit!

In addition to being perceptive,
As my allergist, you took the initiative:
With my dentist you forged an alliance,
To develop a plan of reliance.

The Zinc you endorsed as replacement
Was no doubt an enhancement.
It had very few ill-effects,
To you I extend profound thanks!

All this I say in truth,
With gratitude from your patient, Ruth.
