Hereʼs to the Pencil

by William Jackson on 2004-04-19

Hereʼs to the Pencil, so noble and thin;Ready for any old state that youʼre in.

Hereʼs to the Pencil; heʼs yellow, yet brave,Taking no thought but your thoughts for to save.

Hereʼs to the Pencil, the one that I hold;With him in my fingers Iʼve strength to be bold.

Hereʼs to the Pencil, the writer of dreams.A new world is born with each stroke, so it seems.

Hereʼs to the Pencil, the number two kind;Heʼll never argue with whatʼs on your mind.
