Poem: Mother~In~Law!

Mother-In-Law

Although our relationship to date is much better then what it was in the 80's, 

I still dedicate this to my Mother-in-Law: Judy Williams. And to future Mothers-in-Laws, I tell you this:
strive to be different and succeed at what you strive!
Don't follow in the foot steps of the one before you, good or bad.
Be yourself, and be the best you can be and more!

Mother-In-Law!
I try so hard to please,
No matter what I do...
I'd love to put our minds at ease;
And know the fights are through.
~
Sometimes I wonder why,
We can't see eye to eye.
~
I want to be your friend,
I try to love you so...
Yet it doesn't seem to mend;
We're neither friend or foe.
~
Sometimes I wonder why,
Yet all I do is cry!
~
I know you have tried,
Or so you have said...
Many tears I have cried;
Since your son and I wed!
~
I know you can be nice,
Yet, you treat me like ice?
~
Sooner or later you will see,
What your son and I make...
Is a love that will always be;
The kind that makes you ache!
~
Sometimes I wonder why,
And if we'll ever see eye to eye!
~
