Lost MS Word Icon from Start Menu...help?

Trying to move MS Word shortcut icon from Start Menu "All Programs" area, I
deleted it - oops! How to find/create or otherwise return the icon? Now, to
use MS Word, I must open a past Word document, delete all contents and begin
my new Word document. Silly Me :)

option..thanks for being out there!

Right click Desktop>New>Shortcut>Browse to the Word executable.

Alternately, open a new blank Word doc and SaveAs "New Doc" to your Desktop.
Drag it to the Quick Launch toolbar or Start button.
