My words fall onto the page,
knowing their place better than I.

They form their groups,
shifting into position,
to suit each situation.

Adaptable, flexible, 
ready, willing to be used.

Expectation of earning their keep
understood, accepted.

Taking rejection well,
knowing opportunities arise.

The right fit comes with patience.

Their reward the attention they receive.
