My Pencil Poem by Husna Chikwela

When I was a child, I tried to talk,
When I was talking, I tried to write,
By using fingers and pieces of sticks,
To draw and write by being tought.

When writing, I use pencil to learn,
When I am wrong, I use rubber to rub,
I use untill I know how to write,
I start using a pen by cancelling.

Before using a pen, I use a pencil,
If I don't have a pencil, I made of my own,
By pieces of brocken pencil and used pen,
I put it at the open place on the pen.

When using my own new pencil,
I give hope to myself, at the day I will use a pen,
If its near to finish, I exchange the brocken piece,
Its simple to make and use If there is none.
