PEN

This isn’t an acronym.

It is a powerful tool.

It is blunt but has altered the patterns of history with unequivocal writing success.

It has survived all the defining moments through the centuries

Ranging from the early reed, quills, and dip pens to the contemporary ballpoint, fountain, and felt pens.

History has it that, all users demand a special pen based on the pending purpose of use

There is this status symbol attached to any kind of pen that has ever been manufactured.

M. Klein and H. W. Wynne had received a US patent for the fountain in 1867.

But as early as the 10th century, the pen had existed. 

And until this day, it has metamorphosed through many phases and designs.

One of my favourites and most used pen from the 20th to this century has been Michaels Bich’s Bic pen that was invented in the 1950s.

It is simply elegant and mighty.

The sword could see itself sharp but the pen is supreme.

Talk of brainstorming sessions that led to generational transformation,

The pen inked it.

In the hands of its bearer, though inanimate it is obedient.

The faithfulness of the pen is gobsmacking.

If properly put to good use, it could preserve the life of several citizens.

That's because it bleeds,

And blood fuels the progression of life.

Most importantly, life is precious and lovely
