I am woman,
hear me
listen
for power
doesn’t need
thunder,
it needs
wisdom
and women grow it
in the quiet gardens
where we water
the seeds
of other people’s
Opinions
seeing humans
behind the hubris
and building bridges
not blowing
them up
so turn down the roaring,
hear us
listen to each other
and watch
as peace takes root
and this loud world
heals.
