PEN IS MYTHIER THAN A SWORD
melvin Banggollay



Pen is mightier than the sword
as described by men of words
in the shadow of every cord
of wisdom they proudly showed.

When I was still in high school
I heard my father told so cool
The pen is mightier and truly full
of power than a sword of a fool
for though it can cut so widely deep
one's flesh until one will weep,
It can never penetrate even the tip
of one's soul and mind with a whip
unlike a pen with its great wisdom
can touch even a man's kingdom
with just one wave of its freedom
to tingle man's heart even so dump,
hard headed, and truly stupid man
to be born again like a gentleman.

The pen can build and rebuild a kingdom
with every words and spirits of wisdom
as the writer with its ink and power
can conquer one's mind to ponder,
to act with prudence without boredom
or show its burning desire for freedom,
and to behold upon his hand the power
to change for the worst or for the better
