I'm seldom hurt by angry words
I am the lucky one
Whenever anger comes my way
I wait until the speaker's done
I nod my head as to agree
And let my mind float free
Whoever's blowing off that steam
Can not get through to me
When all the storms have come and gone
And all the harsh words said,
I remove my turned-off hearing aid
And wonder off to bed

I have found words to be devastating
at times of anger...but for future
I will keep your poem...and read it
every day...LOL...ooops...dont have
a hearing aid but I can take the
cotton out of my ears...LOL...
