Sarah's Purple Pen
Gel running purple
Swirling and curling
coloring my paper
Sitting in french class
In the back row seat
writing in lavender ink
Flip the page
continue the flow of color
I have failed my test
S'il vous plait (please)
help me understand
with Sarah's purple pen
looking up
at the teacher in mustard
she speaks to Sarah's purple pen
And Sarah's purple pen listens
and scribbles the word "please"
In place of my original answer
