Erosion
No matter how hard you try,
To force opinion is impossible
All you can do is speak your truth,
Share your narrative,
And be like water,
Patient,
Persistent,
Persuasive,
Breaking down barriers
One particle at a time.

How true! Thanks for the poem.
Love the metaphor and shape
Nice poem, Heather! When I feel powerless, I always go back to the picture of the one lone Chinese student standing in front of an army of tanks. (Tiananmen Square). Tank man he was called in the pics.
Lovely poem and thought
You capture the power of water in the title, but you also show that water seeks its own level, as poetry should.
Nice poem.
