Sense Sonnet - Steamer

 Return to Sender

At family weddings I see

An aunt who always seeks me out,

And right away starts teasing me,

I'll be the next to wed, no doubt.

I know she means no harm, but is

Ever an irritating voice,

Intruding herself in my biz.

Being single is my own choice.

When a distant old cousin died,

I went to the funeral where

I saw my aunt on the far side

Of the service, set in her chair.

To my aunt I did send a text,

"Odds are that you're gonna be next."
