DIY Survival
Listen to this rhyme I say,
and be prepared every day.
In the forest you may go,
weather shine or weather snow.
If you're lost within the trees,
don't run around like a sleaze.
Don't tromp about and shake your head,
for if you do you will be dead.
Stop and sit you whipperbate,
start a fire and then just wait.
Make it smokey and not too tall,
they will know it's a rescue call.
Give it time for them to see,
and they will come to rescue thee.
Use this time to assess,
just how big is your mess.
If its past three days or more,
then it's time to find the door.
Use your head and take your time,
it's downhill so do not climb.
A river stream or a brook,
for this feature you must look.
Then follow it all the way,
downstream you go in the day.
If you listen to what I say,
civilization comes your way.
