I couldn't pen a new poem today

Today, I tried to pen a new poem,
but I left my pen at home.
So, I sat down on a rock
and tried to pen a new poem in chalk.
But then the rains came and washed each new letter away.
Ah, what can I say?
I'll manage to pen a new poem yet ~
just not today.

For a no new poem it sounded pretty fresh to me.
