The Pen
It lies useless without man's hand,
Stationary but available I understand,
When there's creativity I seek it out,
Then how eagerly it moves about,
Crossing the page and dotting the 'T's
Truly it's helpful doing what you please,
Once it's over it can then rest,
Thankful for usage and the ultimate test!
