An Argument

 An Argument
I am the ink pen
The wise old pen
Blue or black the ink in me

A Visitor at Night

Hi,
The following story was born out of a phrase “there was a knock at the door…”. Hope you like it.
A Visitor at Night
It was a hot night and the lights were off. I got out of bed and went downstairs towards the living room. Everything was silent except for the rocking chair. My grandfather usually [...]
