Pardon, please speak up
What did you say?
My hearing's poor
Getting worse every day
Did you say "Good
She can't hear me swear!"
Oh you said Food
You've put it out there
What, you said "She looks Sad
And so very Old!"
Ah, you said milk's gone Bad
It's got lots of Mould
You don't have to shout
Right into my ear
Just speak a little louder
Move your lips dear
Oops that lady looks angry
She has a big frown
My voice is too loud?
Better keep my voice down
I'd better quickly arrange
To see ear Doctor Drew
And tell him my ears
Have in them superglue!
I was in BIG TROUBLE! I heard my husband say he wanted to DUMP his old shoes. So I sent the shoes and other stuff to the nearby charity shop. But apparently he had said he wanted to GUM the shoes as one had a loose sole. Luckily I was able to get his shoes back in time. I wish people wouldn't mumble.

Reminded me of the old joke ... 3 old ladies on a park bench first says is it windy second replies no its Thursday third says so am I lets go for tea. Great poem ☺
Thank you.
It does happen
Though it sounds comedy
And it does make one laugh
But poor soul who understood something else
Easier to blame the ears
A well crafted poetry
Sure makes one smile
Thank you. It's even worse now as the mask reduces the volume, the lips cannot be seen.
Exactly I get your feels
Thank you.
Could have been worse, you might have taken him down to the charity shop. I'm thinking you might have been sick of his old shoes, though.
Yes they were so old and flapping! It really sounded like dump!

This happens many of my friends and acquaintances are 'of a certain age' and many of them you have to be oon the correct side of them to speak into their better hearing ear.
