He could see the decaying foliage on the tree outside, and then, he noticed a bird lighting on a bare branch, who began singing. Robert, entranced, listened to the little avian for a few moments, then reached over his desk for the ink bottle and his favorite fountain pen. The blank page before him offered a creative space for his imagination to flourish, and the lines of a poem flowed out of the nib of his pen. This, too, could happen to you when you are prepared with the appropriate fine writing instruments and bottled ink for fountain pens.
