A Real Charmer

I'm haunted by this image of someone With a smile that lights up the room Colorful teeth that are so enticing Often seen riding a broom Skinny legs knees meet in the middle Big footsies the size of canoes Hair like a mass of squirmy worms Breath smelling a lot like pooh Gangly arms hanging down to her knees Eyes that each look in a different directions Gnarly fingers so boney and bent Quite a sight sure gets your attention Forgive me for running off at the mouth This was an alarming vision I saw A nightmare to end all nightmares for sure A vision of my dear mother-in-law!

Brilliant Jack, poor old mother in laws do get the brunt of our jokes, but no doubt yours is as wonderful as mine was, sorry to say she is no longer with us :((
