Pen: A light-hearted look at a useable object that I handle every day that brings sass of all kinds to every poem that I write. Whether inside or out, the sentiment is the same – AssTea is the pen and is totally to blame.
And Tea is my pen called AssTea
I have a pen friend named Tea
Tea won’t be found in a mug , a cup or glass for me
Tea won’t be restricted to only being held in liquified form you see
That’s not how Tea is or works for me
Because Tea is a pen. slim, and gold and weighted
Just slightly
Tea feels just right when I hold it to write
So, everything you can read
Just glides from Tea perfectly
To give emphasis
When I need it you see and give balance to descriptions
In every piece of my very own ColourMine poetry
My pen if you continue to read, can be discerned
From my description and is called Tea,
Short for AssTea because for me
Tea kicks Ass poetically
AssTea is full of bubbles
Of inspiration that you can read
Hot is one way to describe my Tea
When all the poems flow from me
Onto my notepad for you all to read
It all comes through at such a speed
Not just one poem flies through for me
It’s several and all in early morning
Would you believe
Just after I’d eaten breakfast
Of Weetabix and then whilst drinking
An actual cup of tea
AssTea starts calling for me to write
So ColourMine can have a quick bite
Barely giving me chance to mull
Or give every word a chance to breathe
To give life and colour to everything that is
Written with AssTea
So now you may understand
The significance to me when I say I’m going for
A nice hot cup of Tea it just means a brew
And writing my poems furiously
To give glimpses of my life from a vivid memory
Now I wonder how many of you have a favourite Tea
No not the brew just the pen
Like me, a pen friend AssTea
