Silver like a pole.
Long as a pen.
Still as a stone that
blazes in the light.

Smells like an old house.
That got burnt in a fire.
Sounds like a chime bar
being hit when it drops on the floor.

Taste like a silver lollipop
on a summer's day.
As strong as my best friends
when they're willing to try.

It's silver and gold
and very old.
