It's a Day Like Any Other
The old couple are weedingSide by side in the garden,Their dog right behind themWagging his tail eager to help.Living in complete ignoranceOf what goes on in the worldIs the well-guarded secretOf their lifelong happiness.Sleepwalkers in love, watch themReach for each other’s handWhen their day’s work is done,Pure as angels and proud as devils.
---Charles Simic
Like Ruth Bader Ginsburg said, it helps to be a little deaf.
