I had a story to write,

My heart, glad as it was urged my mind to get ready for it.

So, I went and bought everything I need to write,

Three dozen sets of pencils, cute sharpeners and erasers…

I had a story to write,

Oh love of mine, as soon as I sharpened that first pencil…the words fled.

Now I have thirty six pencils, two sharpeners and two erasers…staying up late waiting for the words to come staggering back home.
