Great collection of pens Grows so much but in my home office now Notebooks and paper of all kinds By the night table In my bag At the ready Words are usually floating in my head All hours of the day The microcassette he gifted me long ago still works Tune out nonsense but engage the words As an educator I know both sides As a student the Creative writing award in High school Two books written and something coming in a different genre You are all in good company because we know and understand Started at eight years of age and paper is still at the ready
