This is a delightful and colorful birthday greeting and tribute to your daughter (in law), who is really a daughter. I especially like your created word, especially for her..."birthMayMelday." I wish you the best in the contest.

Debi,
This is a cute poem which shows you love for Mel. Happy belated Birthday to her.
I like the way you cross out in-law. I feel that in-law shouldn't be used for those married into the family. They are just family.
Keep writing and stay heappy.
Good luck in the contest.
Joan

Hello Debi,
This is an excellent poem for your daughter (daughter-in-law)
I like the clever word play in the Mel May day,
and the fine use of the mono-rhymes.
If she has three sons, she certainly could use time off.
Nicely done with perfect picture.
Best wishes to all.
Robert

Like your poem. May Day is a fun day where you leave a basket of flowers as a surprise on someone's doorstep. At least we use to, but some people don't like surprises, so please let them know what the surprise is.....

    LOL! Thanks so much Rosemary! My son used to always leave a basket at his one grandma's house and that seemed to always give her a smile.
    Thanks for your lovely review and loved your fun statement about the surprise.

Cute Mayday poem. Especially like the line about sunshine when skies are grey. We all need someone like that in our lives. Is Mel your daughter? She's very sweet and gentle and pretty.

    She is my daughter in-law, but in my poem I scratch the in-law out. : )
    She is indeed a lovely girl and I love her dearly. But thank you Jane for your kind review and lovely comments!

We give our children all that we have and in return often have to wait a long time to receive dividends. Not always, and it seems with this daughter they have made you very rich in a family way.

    Since mother in-laws always get a bad rap, I'm proud that my son picked such a sweet girl, who I love dearly! I couldn't pass up an opportunity to write a poem for May Day, which was also Mel's birthday and have a little fun with it. Thanks Tom for your kind review and very lovely comments. Debi
