My friend bounced up and told me
"I have a German pen!"
I knew what she was like and thought
"Oh, what a silly hen!"

Too quick was I to throw disdain
And laugh and chortle too
Her passion overtook her as
She said "I wish you knew!"

So Monday through to Friday's eve
She praised her pen with glee
Bought another and another
And then bought one for me

Through expounding on the virtues
The colours pink and blue
Green and orange; how they wrote
Oh! Now I love them too!

I took the pen she gave me (pink!)
It was my very own
And wrote and wrote and wrote with it
'Til all the ink was blown

Now it lays beside me, dying
Spread-eagled on the floor
Observing its spent carcass
I think "I want one more"

Farewell my blue-inked German pen!
Oh what a time we've had
Our adventures are all chronicled
In my lecture pad
