Deaf Benefits
"You can't hear me!" she whispered,
And I just turned my head.
Sometimes it's better not to hear....
Depends on what's been said.
I know I irritate her;
(I irritate myself).
Hearing aids are waiting
On some hearing doctor's shelf.
While we go on debating,
Because I'm in no hurry,
I sit here contemplating....
Sometimes it's better not to worry.
At the things I heard that peeved me,
Before I tune the wide world out;
Honey, if you really want to catch me,
You're gonna have to shout.
Aging has its issues. Hearing loss seems to be one of mine.
