my ears are keener than dog ears

sitting on my dogs’ porch, their own domain
enjoying the sun that is kissing my right arm
brand new chain link keeps us hostage, away from delivery men
large annoying bumblebee zips in to say hello
she sounds like a buzz saw
no indication that either of my dogs heard the bee
I usually say I have dog ears since I hear more than most
apparently, my ears are keener than dog ears
