< Ode to my old friend,Sharp Pencil>

Dear sharp pencil.

Hello my old friend. We've known each other for 4 years.
I remember when we met for the first time. My teacher  bought you for me. You were expensive, shiny and beautiful. I love your brilliant blue color.You were brilliant. So I thought that If  I  use you, then I'll be brilliant, too. You made me really brilliant. So I love you very much.

You are very special because my teacher bought you for me. I like that teacher. She was very kind and wise. Now, I moved to Ilsan, so I can't see my teacher. However , I can think about  the memory of my teacher when I look at you. You are a good, great, and grand friend to me. I love you so much. I'll write with you forever.

I like you because you are a wonderful sharp pencil. You are very soft and make my fingers comfortable. Do you remember that day I left you in my home? At the school, I missed you so much. I didn't have you, so I had to borrow another pencil. After that day, I knew that you were the best sharp pencil I have ever seen before. 

As you know, every best friend  sometimes feel sorry to each other. I am sorry because I ruined your eraser. On the top of your head, I remember that you had a long eraser. I thought it was very funny, so I picked out the eraser from your top. I played with the eraser, then I lost the eraser. It was part of your body. I'm so sorry, my sharp pencil . Can  you forgive me? I believe you can.

I think you can perceive my hand because I used you for four years. Iy is a really long time, isn't it? We've known each other very well. I think maybe you know my method of studying. It is my secret. I like you very much. Let's be good friends with each other forever. 

-From Amelia who likes you very much-

  2. Goeun,

    This is a good ode. Try to use metaphors and more repetition to make the ode more poetic. You should also add pictures to your post as well.
