Well I had noticed a few of our new members coming out with a few points that their life has been taken over and they now have the "BUG"

So I thought as I have quite a bit of time currently not being able to do what I want to do I thought I would put pen to paper.

So now I have put mine for all to see, lets see yours to be better than me.....:rolling:


Hello fellow pen turning addicts I am your disease,

I will never let you sleep or put your mind at ease,

'Welcome to Hell," the sign should've read,

Creating that first perfect pen is all in my head!

Close your eyes and picture it looking grand,

It won’t be long before it’s in thy hand!

Oh yes this battle has been won,

A perfect pen I have just done.

However this war my friend, will forever go on.

Family and friends will take everything you turn and still want more,

Because your addiction still wants more.

The money pit it is, it will still keep a taking,

While spending on tools we are all a faking.

Whether it’s a roller ball, ball point or fountain pen be

They will never understand and see what you see.

So I will head of now and have me fill,

To get my blanks and my drill.

To make that perfect pen, I will head off to my den.

For the rest of my life, now cursed with this disease
.
For all those who suffer, you just got to believe

For it will take over your life and you will never be free,

So whatever happens, be rest assured I will always be happy.


So come on now guys and girls, put pen to paper and give me your best
If you don't then it will be the best..:face:

I think someone said the pen is mightier than the sword, it seems that he knew what he was talking about.

DISCLAIMER - I am not a poet!

There was a young man, started turnin'
Not great at first, but he is learnin'
He started a pen,
Tried again and again,
Now family; for those pens, are yearnin'
