Tears

  Her constant lachrymosityWhen seated juxtaposityBrings on my predisposityTo rampant bellicosity

My grand daughter stayed

My grand daughter stayed with us a couple of weeks ago, she was rather poorly and cried incessantly for two days, I did not shout, swear or lose my temper (although I came very close indeed)in fact I was a model grand parent, anyway it was that experience that prompted this little verse, glad you found it worthy of comment. Regards John

I applaude your restraint.

I have zero tolerance for whinging kids. I would be a lousy mum. always, Aeron
