Senior Bells

Senior Bells Senior Bells I wish my ears would stop ringing Senior bells What the hell It sounds just like Christmas day Where’s the sidewalk There’s the sidewalk I’m not sure though sometimes I don’t care If those bells would stop ringing Gas is passing Children laughing I might fall, I can’t see And of course, I’m still hearing those bells Senior Bells Senior Bells It’s Christmas time I am thinking Senior Bells Senior Bells What, have I missed Christmas day PS I have Tinnitus, the good part is every day can be Christmas!

Mike, you have me sitting here laughing, I was reading some of your poems PS has put in your 'Best Poems by Mike Gentile' and admiring the sweetness, beauty and serenity of those poems, and then clicked to see what is new, this one was a big surprise that made it all the more hysterically funny! So does your tinnitus play in a tune of Jingle (Senior) bells? :) Oh goodness, I needed this laugh. I have dealt with the ringing from time to time, aggravating! Happy New Year Mike, thanks for the lol!

Yes, the problem with that ringing in the ears is aggravating. I have had it for a very long time now and most of the time, I can just ignore it, but then once in a while it is very annoying. Thanks for sharing this humorous one with us. Sara K
