To Write





Pens and pencils lying still 

do not dream of words they 

will write. Quiet til an empty 

page is to be filled. When a 

hand reaches out for a pen or 

a pencil to write the truth, 

    to write of other worlds, 

      to write a Christmas card, 

        to write a grocery list or 

       to doodle a clown’s face




“A pen is to me as a beak is to a hen.”

~ J.R.R.Tolkien
