(This story is not about my mother in law, as I never met her, she departed this world, before I had the pleasure of meeting her. I am sure, that I would have enjoyed meeting and getting to know her) .
Tis' not the end of the world, that your mother in law, is coming to visit...
You might not now, become meladramatic.
Tis' not the end in sight...
Surely she is not such a sight filled fright.
With her, you'll just have to get along with her...
You don't mean it when you say that she is the ugliest doggish cur.
Will there be a fight tonight? , will there be too much flying fur? ...
Will there be violence to occur?
Tis' not the end...
Surely, she does not, to everyone-offend?
Tis not the end...
We must all at times learn to put up with, and be flexible to bend.
Tis' not like a big gust of wind, that we must survive...
Give her an under standing and good wishes, while she is here, and alive.
For in the end, she'll have to up and leave...
Then her evil web will be broken and cleaned from our lifely sleeve.
Away she'll dissipate like a bad gone stain...
Then you'll have no exscuse, to get mad, and complain.
There is a light at the end of your heart, troubled tunnel...
Only so long, as she goes back down her exiting funnel.

Geeze Loueeze...You have an ''ENDORA '' too, Michael Jeffrey? ! My sincere condolences....and many votive candles to be lit for you in preparation for this potentially un-nerving visitation ! Or perhaps something easier, and that you can do without playing with matches....Count to TEN! (Ever watch ''The Honeymooners''(MY ALL-TIME FAV) ...It's the episode when Ralph puts the timer on, and bets Alice that her Mother will ruin their night in less than 3 minutes after walking in the front door) . Good Stuff, Michael, as always...Wit & Cleverity...Perfect together, especially when it has the name ''Michael Gale'' at the bottom of the finished product! Frank/FjR ~ 2010 ~
