Risk Taker

Spent a little time in a world so right 
Thousands of words filled my night 
Met a little filly, I would call my own 
Casting my fears into the great unknown 

I heard her unique beat, saw her dance 
We started our own poetic romance 
Two hearts, one voice, singing in unison 
Sipping the same soup, we dived right in 

She's a mover, a shaker. 
A real risk taker 
A diamond, an ace, 
She rocks this place 

Wonders never cease, she's the one 
Many duets are sure to come 
No drama, no games, she's insane 
Her rap is better than Lil Wayne 

She'll cuss like a sailor, rhyme like Seuss 
She'll give you love and take your abuse 
I found an angel, she found a friend 
This connection is without an end 

She's a mover, a shaker. 
A real risk taker 
A diamond, an ace, 
She rocks this place 

A hundred voices, a thousand choices 
The bowl of soup fills, with all styles and skills. 
Two peas in a pod, too alike to be odd 
Sharing this with you, our soup is not stew

Now this one sounds like a real song, not a poem! Kinda reminds me of 'The Joker' by Steve Miller. Congrats.
