Things You Can Do With a Pen

In the world of the pen
Anything is possible
No task to daunting 
No destination out of reach

From five years old to ninety five 
 The pen can take us anywhere

The pen can be a source of great
Inspiration or it can be a most
Terrible weapon 

 It can make people laugh
It can make people cry
I can bring them down low
I can lift them up high

I can take you away to a fantasy land
Where knights in fine armor
Rescue fair maidens and do fierce battle
With firebreathing dragons

 With the pen you can dance through
Lollipop forests, sail licorice boats on 
chocolate oceans or climb candycane stairs
to gumdrop thrones

The most wonderful thing about the pen
It allows us to do whatever we choose
So use it for fun, use it for good,
Use it for inspiration and to lift hearts high
The pen has Great power 
so when you use it be wise

That is what a pen can do, it seems such an innocent little thingy, but beware... It writes beautifully luckily, and hoepfully more than hateful. Great write!

I'm sorry my phone decided it did not like the way I spelled Kina so it called you Tina. I somehow managed to make a smart phone dumber.
