Dialogue with a poem

I had a dialogue with a poem

it asked me to not look for interesting words

but to merely listen

to its whispers

for simple truth

is more powerful

than lofty words

But I protested

and said that the right word

at the right time

in the perfect line

is like a symphony

or a kiss for breakfast

But I agreed 

to wait for those whispers

and seek beauty

in simplicity

and suddenly

my unborn words

just fell into place.
