Close Neighbors

Their two houses were constructed as such
Their neighbors seemed close enough to touch
No moan or squeal
Could they conceal
She wore ear plugs, to not hear so much!

Her husband wore a hearing aid in style
His adjusting it a bit, made her smile
But she got mean
When she had seen
Turning it up is how he turned the dial!

Cute! This reminds me of my own parents. When daddy would say his piece, he'd then turn his hearing aid off so he wouldnt have to hear mom's response! Thx for reminding me! :D
