I like the little poems. They are hard. To say so much with so little.I wouldn't want to see that on a dark night. Good writing Scary picture. One left to review until I read everyone else, and then begin again. Karen

This is funny, but in my case it was never the in-laws. It was my own mother. In fact, I didn't even invite her to my 50 birthday party because I didn't want her embarrassing me in front of my friends.

I regret the delay in responding, but the Baltic cruise ship had an unstable internet signal. Just got back home and have lots of catching up to do.

You selected the perfect picture and I did not expect the conclusion. Best wishes in the senryu contest- Joan

A great little write and congrats on the second place win. My father in law wasn't bad but oh that mama! She was tiny but, oh so direct and powerful. I love the Senryu format and think you did a marvelous job! xoxo Kiwi

Oh, this is SO humorous. I'm sure many will identify with your senryu. The image combined with the words is great. Best of luck in the contest with this fine entry. Marilyn

Senryu (dreadful foggy eve), is short, succinct and very much much to the point. With a minimum of words, this talented poet has told it as it is. You KEEP WRITING and I'll KEEP READING. I look forward to seeing your next post.

I like this poem. Your poem adheres to the rules of a Senryu poem. Your poem is very funny. I don't have in-laws but I hope when I do they won't summon terror. Good choice of words. Good Job.

Oh my - I do hope the mom/law doesn't present that kind of picture to you. As I'm a mother/law four times over, I do not wish to be dreaded. However, your poem is funny and I like it.

Wish I had a six! Hilarious. This is phenomenal. I love the sense of humor conveyed in this short little piece. You condensed this so well. I laughed out loud! Great photo choice. Good luck!

This is hilarious! The photo is creepy. I hope the in-laws, aren't. Nicely written Senryu. I found no grammatical errors. Good luck writing again and with the in-laws;)
