Thank You for popping over... if I have gone AWL, again...
Please come a knocking over at this door... I am, no doubt, up to something, as per usual...

This is a wonderful little poem that I found on Maureen's blog & as DH & I are a tad deaf we both got a real laugh out of it & I'm sure you will too, especially if you have this slight affliction, so I'm sharing it with you all too ... th
It Pays to Listen
When they gave out brains,
I thought they said 'trains'
I missed mine.
When they gave out looks,
I thought they said 'books'
I didn't want one.
When they gave out noses,
I thought they said 'roses'
I asked for a red one.
When they gave out chins,
I thought they said 'gins'
I asked for a double.
When they gave out heads,
I thought they said 'beds'
I asked for a soft one,
IT PAYS TO LISTEN !
Ohh isn't this so true ... thanks Maureen ...
Thankful ... for loved ones that show patience & tolerance ...
