Comment from Pearl Edwards
This is a lovely poem for your mother-in-law , Tina. She sounds like a very strong lady who has much love to share and she gets it back. I love that glamour and generosity is part of the mum that you love. Beautiiully written.
cheers.

How very blessed you are to have a mother-in-law who brings so much joy and meaning into your life and that of your family. She has inspired a lovely verse which was a pleasure to read. Love always wins. Happy Thanksgiving.

How wonderful it is that you call your husbands mother, Mom... I always called my husbands father, Dad... just felt right.
The fact that although she has some heath issue that her spirit is always high is wonderful.

Lisa, I'm so glad that you also experienced a close relationship with an in law. It really is special when you decide to love one who is not your blood but is family, all the same!

It wasn't always so easy. We are very different but we both intend on appreciating our differences, so it's a beautiful thing! Magical, you might say,lol.

This is a very nice tribute. You are a very lucky woman to have such a person in your life. Marriage with a bonus.
suggestion only:
The only problem that endures is the number of retorts.
-how about-
The only problem that endures is the number who adore

Comment from Thesis
What a great tribute to your mother-in-law. You clearly state that she is an extraordinary woman who is selfless and caring, in spite of having health issues of her own, and does it all while looking smashing. You're lucky to have her in your life.

Thesis...I love the word, "smashing." I wish I had used it! That's how she always looks:) Thank you for the review !
Comment from Bill Schott
This poem, Glamour Queen, presented with five rhyming tercets, honors a person who has weathered many years and still looks no less for wear. Sounds like a beautiful person inside and out.

You are lucky to have a wonderful mother-in-law, Tina. I also have one and she is 98. She was doing great until this year when she had a stroke. Noe, she is forgetful and my wife is taking care of her. Thank you for sharing your "mom". :)

You should write a poem about your MIL. I am very interested to know what she is like. I will pray, as soon as I finish this note, for her. I hope she bounces back a bit from the stroke and that your wife is able to take care of her well. Thanks for the note and review!
Comment from Wendy G
What a delightful lady she sounds - string and beautiful with great ferocity of spirit. You are fortunate to have her as a mother-in-law. My only suggestion is to have a paler background and a larger font as if is a bit hard to read.

I agree with your corrections and will address them tonight. I did go a little overboard on the color, a color she often wears!
Thanks, Wendy!
