A pen is a small, long cylindrical device containing ink that you place in your hand with which to write or draw. You can write all kinds of things, for example you can write love letters or do school work. Whatever you think in your mind you can put down on paper.
Early pens were quills, hollow feathers which, when placed in an ink well, sucked up ink that could then be applied to paper. One could write several sentences before the quill dried out and had to be returned to the well. Back when I was in school desks came with small holes in the upper right corner to hold the ink well, which was a small glass container of ink. A popular trick was for boys to dip the ends of girl's pig tails (a common fashion back in the day) into the ink well, which then stained the backs of their blouses. Many a young lad whiled away a hot afternoon in the corner of some school room, wearing the dunce cap, after engaging in such mischievous antics.
