Writing With a Quill
I wrote a small note with a quill.
It’s surprising, but this exists, still.
Yes, I dipped it in ink;
Quite a mess, you would think,
But that only applies if you spill.
This was in a post office of yore,
Still in use, but with antique décor;
So they set up a site
Letting visitors write
With a feather (for sale in the store!).
On the table were dishes of sand
Meant to sprinkle a bit with your hand
On your writing, to dry it;
I think you should try it.
The quill should be more in demand.
