In-Laws
In-laws
And their flaws
Sisters and brothers
Ma’s and Pa’s
Some are sweet
Some are cold
Some are young
Some are old
They’re short
They’re tall
They talk too much
But they never call
Some will drink a coke
Others will have a beer
I hear someone saying “I’m thirsty”
Here’s a class of water my dear
“I like rib eye steak; I like roasted chicken”
“I like baked salmon; the food is in the kitchen”
“Is there anything that I’m missing?”
“Naugh Bob keep looking at Miss, I think he’s smitten”
We ate
We talked
We danced
We all had a good time
Family, friends and in-laws
People are cool no matter what their titles
When it’s all summed up
The day was delightful
