Describes how writing has changes with time

 The Pen

The pen is an animate object that holds blue liquid in its beings

It helped write on paper about hopes and dreams

It helped if there is something you wanted to remember

The pen has come a long way in colour and design

It comes in all colours not like in the past

I think of years ago a feather pen one would hold unto

Dip it in the ink bottle for their story to be told

The pen put down on paper love letters to behold

Sometimes the pen wrote words on paper

That never should been told

Once hurtful words are on paper they cannot be taken back

You cannot erase words the pen helped write once they are sent

The pen helped people write down all their desires

The pen helps the words flow down unto the page

Then a letter was sent

TThe pen helped write many good-bye letters

Or love letters in the past

Sometimes the ink on paper would make another smile

Words written on paper a lesson would be learned

Today the pen is not used as much replace

With a finger and a computer pad

Aphone or text a message is futures way to write

No matter how you write a message

That you send make sure it does not hurt

The person that receives it at the other end

We use now the tip of our finger

For our words to be received

It does not matter what you use

Some words are best expressed in person

Think about the words you write

Are they words you would want to read?

If not do not press send

E-mail or text message to a friend

Make sure it is something

You would want to read if on the receiving end!

 Reviews of "The Pen"
Reviewed by Ronald Hull
Reviewed on March 15, 2023
The first writing was scratched on rock and on wet clay. In Egypt, on a paper made from reeds called papyrus or leather parchment like the Dead Sea Scrolls. Many of these ancient forms contained poems or love songs forever ingrained for us to read today.

Your poem writes about the changing ways we write since using the quill pen. And you are absolutely right, that when you write something on the Internet, it will tend to be there forever and one should be careful not to insult or write things there that you would later regret. Unfortunately, some of these forms of writing like texting, may be convenient, but they require the receiver to have a cell phone to receive and require an abbreviated form of writing that may not be understood by the reader.

Some interesting thoughts to ponder in your poem.

Ron
