Ode to an Air Pod

The world with annoying noises abounds,
But in my ear I hear only sweet sounds.
TV’s Miss Rachel only mouths the words,
Her saccharine warblings will go unheard.
For in my ear, you nestle so snugly,
And block out all the voices that bug me.
There’s podcasts and music and hockey scores,
Information, the news and so much more.
I can e’en answer the phone if you call,
No one will hear you, so you can tell all.
People think to myself I do mutter,
Or talk to ghosts like some kind of nutter.

But when they complain, my head I just nod,
And thank Apple for my little AirPod.
