Itemization:

The colon (not semi)
will surely be missed,
struck by a bullet
from his very own list.

Period 2

Period, like a traffic cop,
says "you there, in that sentence! Stop!"

Quotation

I said this, which should be noted:
"write it down and make it quoted."

Comma

A pause can add a bit of drama,
be careful where you put your, comma.

Dash

I can always use a dash
because of where they're kept -- my stash.
