Pencil

Pencil
A pencil knows how to make words appear,
and when to brake or snap,
and how to endure the pain of a sharpener,
and how to elicit ideas from a writer.
A pencil knows what abates a reader,
and how to regale a sketcher,
and how to enthrall a teacher,
and what makes a reader ardent,
but most of all a pencil knows how to devour the mind of a reader!
