John Bennett Bennett Poems

Please help me find my poem I wrote 35 years ago
'-Inside my Pen'. I always loved to draw never thought I was any good but I loved it. My mother had just bought me this fancy blue ink pen with a nice ink flow and I used that to draw. In 6th grade we had a project, there was a competition to write a poem and all the other schools were involved.
I didn't know what to write about, I was an artist not a poet, I thought to myself. As I sat there rolling my pen through my scrawny fingers it came to me, I'll write about my new friend, 'Pen'. I envisioned that anything was possible with a pen, I gave it so power and tried to see it as my magical wand, . I'm not to sure how the whole thing went but it started like this, ' Inside my pen, Inside my pen there are gorillas swinging from there trees, Inside my pen there are Hungry Sharks waiting to devour its prey'……… basically things I like to draw about. I wish I had listened to my younger self for he had much more knowledge than I,
-. Life has hit me hard as it does all.
