I well understand your poem. I had an aunt Catherine, we called Aunt Cats, who we thought was possessed because she was so mean. I couldn't stand her, yet at times, I find I miss her just being here. Great poem.

Some people accept negative information they receive about someone, and never taking the time to see for themselves, they treat people with preconceived attitudes which is reflected right back at them. People who do not form opinions prematurely often wind up with a different view than one held by others. I'm just saying.

I liked this wonderful poem dedicated to your late aunt. Nobody seemed to like her apart from you and nobody liked hi ER husband either. A really be fascinating observation of CV a person seen from opposite perspectives. Ulla:)))

Thank you for sharing Aunt Edna with us. I enjoyed reading the poem. I'm glad you saw something in her that nobody else did. That's a special trait. I'm sure God saw something special in her too.

Families can be strange, Janet. My sister hasn't spoken to me for years, I might find out why, one day. At least your aunt is remembered with fondness by you, and I'm sure she felt it. This is a lovely poem, not one that goes all mushy but it's written with honesty and love. I'm sorry for your loss, my friend, you've written a lovely tribute to her. :)) Sandra xx

    Thank you Sandra for your thoughtful and encouraging review. So sorry about your sister. My son hasn?t spoken to me in years and it is painful. I reach out from time to time but so far my entreaties go unanswered.

    Blessings my friend.

That's not a bad thing my friend for having very few people that liked her. Probably because they didn't understand her and also read genuine people always have a small circle, I'm one of them. She saw something in you that she say in no one else, it sounds like to me! Your words flowed perfectly throughout the piece and were not forced at all;-)
I'm sure she'd be honored of your tribute in this piece!

Thanks for sharing this well written piece with us and may God bless you and your family;-)

Just beautiful. Despite the traits of her relationship with some, you saw the light and bearing, something more, which is unusual, but extra giving...and worth.
Good alliteration in places, and your conclusion is excellent, in view f the body of the work.
Is it not uncanny how we both thought to write something so close to each other? Almost identical in thought.
Bravo.
My best Janet.
A lovely presentation.
Best wishes.
RG

    Thank you RG for this amazing review and the extra special stars.
    It is uncanny that we both wrote something almost identical in thought. Your beautiful poem of Michelle was colorful and did make me smile. I'm not sure what drove my aunt but she was a character in her own way. But, their memories will always be with us.

    Hope you are doing well my friend.
    Blessings
