I was feeling rather wobbly

So I donned the panic button -

It can  hang upon a chain around my neck.

I didn't want to use it, it was just security,

As I was really somewhat of a wreck.

 

Quite soon a voice called out my name,

I couldn't fathom whence it came.

I thought that someone was outside,

I looked around and did decide

It really must have been the phone.

 

I picked it up and all alone

I asked who was it calling me

For there was no-one I could see.

The voice went on, I couldn't understand

The words I heard, the conversation was absurd.

 

Still the voice called out my name,

By now I really felt insane.

When at last the phone did ring

Some sanity to me did cling.

It was my daughter and her voice

Did really make my heart rejoice.

 

She told me that security was the voice a-calling me

For I had pressed unwittingly the panic button.

I really felt I was a fool to think that I had lost my cool,

I rushed inside to the machine and immediately came clean.

I made an abject apology for causing such distress

And then I made a lucky guess

 

That stuffing up, just now and then

Is all the fault of NBN.
