Be Prepared Poem by Sylvia Frances Chan

I have knocked on all life´s doors
they stayed closed, no any sign of coming wars
life felt safe and happiness was everywhere
but how can I learn from life´s experience

The proverb says experience is the best teacher
what if I have never had one outside my door
how can I learn from life and will know more?
just waiting till it comes knocking at my door?

My grandma told me when it comes, it´s too late
you must be prepared and not separate
come to them right ahead, break open their doors
splash in their puddles, till you get wet through and through

My grandma was right, I followed her advice
I got that experience, my best teacher
always ask her first then follow her wise words at once
never separate yourself, go outdoors, be prepared for the worst

The teacher has crawled into your inside
you have swallowed, observed and fought against all odds
then you are prepared, be amused and
the best in life is yet to come!
