Kettle Verse

On 11 October 2009 at 16:34 I announced on Facebook 

“have just been to Asda to buy a new kettle”
Which prompted the following from MrsPH:-

What kind of kettle is it?
Does it knock you in the ear

when the boiling point is near
with a stream of steam and whistle to demark,
that the water is now ready
for the bath n for the Teddy
so the little one can go and face the dark?

Does it make you feel at home

when you're tired and all alone
and a cuppa would really hit the mark?
The kettle is your friend
and faithful to the end
as long as your hearth has a spark!!

(Oh well, even Wordsworth had to start somewhere!)

Think I'll go and make a cup of tea now.

 Bentonbag

It's the cheapest Asda sell 
And it's working very well
Though we've only had it less than half a day 
The other was the same
And its only claim to fame 
Was the phut and smell made as it passed away
