Words for her

I met a poem on the street
Waiting for some words to meet

She seemed rather lost in thought
Looking for these words she sought

"It's been so long", I heard her say
Since I had any words to play

I promised to help her in her quest
And look for words that suit her best

I wondered which ones she would want,
Ones that cry, laugh or taunt

Then she smiled and made me see,
"The Words will be your gift to me,

I will take those that you find,
Just look deep within your mind"

And in front of my own eyes,
I saw her like a phoenix rise

Words just words, simple and fine,
And there she was, poem mine!
