At a Pinch I Could Live Without

At a pinch I could live without chocolate,
And I could just about cope without a cup of coffee,
Or the loss of internet,
But the absence of anything worth reading,
And no pen and paper available to keep my creative juices flowing,
Would really start to bite.

If I run out of sugar I will drop a chunk of chocolate into my much needed cup of coffee. If I run out of chocolate my mornings will be bitter (lol) But the one thing I will always have on hand is a jar full of pens. It's the paper that I go through that I need to stockpile. If I have no paper, then I resort to my laptop. If the internet blows...then that really bites (lol). Nice write, David. Thanks for stopping by. Charlie from NJ

Glad to hear from you, Charlie from NJ. Thank you for taking time to read my work and give feedback that I can relate to and enjoy. It encourages me to know that there is still the odd person about who has a plan to deal with whatever life throws their way. Best regards David in NZ
