THE BLUE PEN

The world’s changed, you've stayed the same  Amongst fancy pens, your look's mundane  Your ink, your hue, you’re still as blue  Yet you happily exist without a clue  Surrounded by pens, still there are few  My very first blue pen, yes it was you  It’s vivid, my excitement of turning ten  When school let us write with a pen  But with you, there’s a bitter reality In using you, we’re heartless, arbitrary  We use and throw, lose or forget you  For we know, there’ll always be another you   In creating you, there’s plastic and ink  Let’s not be wasteful, we must rethink  Please finish the pen that you’re using  Change wasteful habits, stick with one thing   Write and write, until the ink runs out  Borrow a pen, but remember to return it  And if you see a pen, lying half-used  Pen your thoughts when you’re confused   Don’t bin the pen, until it’s over  Be judicious as its owner...
