    I was trying to think of something on pens. Additionally, I was thinking about the fact that us white guys have noses too big to drink from a 蓋碗(盖碗). Out of this motivation I composed the following extremely stupid rhyme whith no aesthetic qualities. I had fun and hope it gives you a laugh too. That I compose such crap is not due to lack of respect to Chinese poetry, but because I like study with a smile.

    一名畫家相信地
    接受過外國徒弟.
    雖然書法有點差
    可是鼻子特別大.
    那名畫家每天都
    去長安吃芝麻球.
    晚上他終於回來
    但是毛筆都不在.
    因為都是被徒弟
    藏在他鼻子裡.

        “A painter trustingly(/good naturedly/naively) accepted a foreign disciple”. I hope I didn’t give you too much of an headache with it…

        Don’t worry, you didn’t ^_^
        You can say”一名画家欣然地收了一个外国徒弟”
