School Reunions

My husband's father and his brothers, wives and nephews too
all came to spend the afternoon, describe what they'd been through.
They'd travelled here because they were old boys from my son's school
and this weekend was their reunion - reminiscing ruled.
Last night the meal was disappointing, all of them agreed,
the lack of tables meant too many ate right off their knees.
The food they had was hardly worth the $40 paid
and then the buses home again meant waiting . They would trade
the whole fiasco for a morning tea with cake, it seemed
until we took their photos and they stood around and preened.
