Hopefully, everyone has matured over time and have learned a few lessons in being polite and civil at least until the visit is over, Well done, Buck

And rant you did..... lol
I know the feeling of going to meet people I did not get along with and worrying about it beforehand.
You poem expressed this sentiment very creatively.
I hope the meeting went well.
Well done.

I'm sure that your family visit will turn out just fine. I like this poem as I have some trouble with family also. I wish you the best of luck with your visiting family.

Robina, I think you've done a good job of expressing
the anxiety that happens sometimes when family
members come to visit. It is sad that we have to
worry. Hopefully, there won't be problems.

I guess, in every family people do not always see eye to eye, and especially after so many years. I am sure it will all work out. Well chosen words and imagery to convey your thoughts. Enjoyable read. Faye

Hi Ine,

I thought your poem in which you vented your anxiety about relatives who are coming to visit is a very good read. Maybe your hubby's son and family will surprise you this time and be sweet as pie.

Hi Ine

It is often difficult having to be in the company of people that we don't get along with.

I hope that for Robert's sake as well as your own, it all works out okay. You never know, after all these years, perhaps you will both see things differently now.

kind regards

tracey

It is a drag to have unwelcome guests but for Roberts sake you will make the best of it I am sure. People change a lot in seventeen years so perhaps it will be a good visit! Good luck. xx Nancy

Hi Ine. I loved this poem and I understand why you're a little bit nervous. I saw my brother after 20 years and I could hardly regognize him... But don't worry, it will go well. I hope your voice is in a good shape then, I know how much effort it costs for you to talk. Have a good time together!!!!
Hugs Fia
