I Have Got Ten Pens

I have got ten pens from nature ‘den and now
I’m imprisoned but seasoned with how reason
Clustered but buttered with what I mutter
Daunting but flaunting of my pen bends and bow


I have got more love from the noble core where
 I explored and implored the grains that wisdom stored
 kissed and missed the pains that wisdom dished
 unfurled and hurled the brain that are austere

I have got a strong throng from a nifty pond who
 makes and bake the cake that crowns my slake,
 brush and crush the stones that block my view
 Wait and watch as I stun the lake like a hake
