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!
