Asking it again; not hyphen-related

Hi. I asked many questions in a long and what looked to be a rather disorganized post, but this time, I am asking one question from it again since I have gotten any responses for the original one.

HERE it is. Sorry I could not take out (delete?) what looked to be rectangular boxes in the middle or sentences. I am not computer-savvy.

When you have two objects, a pen and pencil, on the table. Can we say/write like these?

The pencil is right of the pen. The pencil is to the right of the pen. The pencil is on the right side of the pen. The pencil is next to the pen, to the right of the pen. The pencil is on the right of the pen.
