Judy, you must let her see this and offer to write her story. I agree, her story would impact many lives. She sounds like one strong and determined woman.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
That is such a lovely tribute to your mother-in-law, have you shown her? It is nice when daughter-in-laws feel that way about their son's mother, and more so when the mum thinks that way of their daughter-in-law. It's really lovely. Well done! xsx Sandra

Yes, She called me today , blushing , ( I could tell over the phone) to say thank you. I told her it was all true and thanked her again. I am happy I wrote it for her.

You should write her stories and about her life.Your poem is well written and the photo you chose completes the poem well. People like your mother in law never realize how special they are because they are them.

So true. She just thinks she is simple and lived her life. There is way more to it than that. Thank you so much.
Comment from Jesse James Doty
Exemplary poem. You expressed yourself so well, I really 'got' what you were saying. The order of the poem makes perfect sense. I love the ending two lines, especially. It works well that you talked about her, and then to her, in the end. Peggy must have been a wonderful person, and you are a testament to that. Write her story, why don't you. You are the one to do it, for her, and for you. I love the free verse form you chose to write it in. It suits it well. Thank you for sharing your story of your relationship with her. I enjoyed reading your poem very much.
Peace, Jesse

thank you Jesse , I am luck she is still here. She is an interesting person and I hope to write some of her story when she lets me. I love your comments. Thank you.

Yes, you are lucky she is still here. I must have misunderstood the poem because I thought you wrote about her in the past tense. All the better that she is still alive. She is also lucky to have you admire her. By the way,...you're welcome.

Comment from frogbook
I bet she does and one might be that she has a nice daughter-in-law. Wonderful tribute and not always the case that these 2 entities can get along so well.

I am indeed lucky. Just wanted her to know.
Comment from Joy Graham
This is a lovely tribute to your mother-in-law :) I have a friend in my mother-in-law too. You're right - that friendship is better than love in the relationship we have.
I'm not sure what poetry form you have used here. I guess it fits more into a free verse form?
All in all the theme and message made for an enjoyable read.

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written poem. It is not always that a wife loves her mother in law. She is for sure a remarkable woman, that accept her daughter in law as her own.
