Sound of Love

The dog who could not hear

By Patti Marrs MagillPublished about a year ago 1 min read

She is not bothered

In the world of noise and thunder

Long ago she lost her ability to hear it

Ever since she turned 10

Now, she is happy happy with

Cuddles, and kisses, and pets, and naps

Even in silence, she thrives

Gratitude
