My Friend Pencil

Swoosh! My pencil slides along the paper
leaving a beautiful drawing
of a tiny little cottage in the woods
with a nice little fire that’s flaming HOT!
So you better not touch it
Or you’ll get hurt!

And there it goes again
writing sentences, creating drawings
my beautiful pencil, oh I love it so much

My beautiful pencil oh it really is beautiful
Its black with a worn out eraser
It has a sharp tip
but then it gets all worn out
and when it’s all worn out
so dull, so sad
I’ll sharpen it once again
to make it oh so very happy

Slide, Swoosh, Scrape
Scrape, Slide, Swoosh
there it goes
My pencil has made something beautiful
Once again
