A Pencil

It's a lifeless structure

It strives all day,

We write with it as if it's an adventure.

It bears all the pain and does not dare to say,

How exhausted it may feel?

It doesn't make a blunder unless we do.

Its sinew of creativity is as brawny as steel.

To writing life it's more than worthy and new

It always stays unflinching.

But it has been stated

As the most imperative, an element that is anchoring

The creativity and way of writing in life.

Even though it's made of wood and lead,

In life it brings inspiration, no strife

It's life's writing seed.
