This pen is perfect,
Just right for my size.
This pen is indeed perfect,
But there is something I despise.
The lid is cracked and
The ink is running low.
The pen is a little crooked.
I guess it is a little old, but
Otherwise everything is fine.
This pen is my favorite
With its words still engraved
And its healthy green glow.

There are words like Freedom
Sweet and wonderful to say
On my heartstrings freedom rings
All day everyday.
I saw a star slide down the sky,
Blinding the north as it went by,
Too burning and too quick to hold,
Too lovely to be bought or sold,
Good only to make wishes on
And then forever to be gone.
The railroad track is miles away,
And the day is loud with voices speaking,
Yet there isn't a train goes by all day
But I hear its whistle shreiking
In Spring, a breeze blows from the west;
A breath as gentle as a sigh;
And with it, soft tears from the sky;
Relief at passing winter's test.
A poem that is written to a person, object, or event.

O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won,
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring;
But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.

I know I'm going somewhere,
and I can hardly wait,
Somewhere's not the sort of place
where someone should be late
