Contingency Plan

Time For A Cuppa 

In case of an emergency 
Be grateful 
Be grateful for fresh running water
Be grateful for the little stream
The one you walk pass and never did you dream 
In case of an emergency 
Be grateful 
Be grateful for the teabag you found 
The one you threw away because you thought it had its day 
In case of an emergency 
Be grateful 
Be grateful for the tins , hidden but not forgotton 
those saucy sardines 
Taste like  5 star Michelin
In case of an emergency 
fFnd yourself a friend 
someone close by 
soneone within walking distance
In case of an emergency 
you'll be very pleased 
I keep a stock of milk
In my pantry
