How Strong is a Woman? - Hilary Susan Moore

[Larry Robinson]

How Strong is a Woman?

Some say 
strength 
is a rock
others an oak
hard
firm
rooted
immovable
I say hers 
is a river
You can bend it 
but 
You can't break it
You might 
cross it
swim it
ride it 
and it may take you
to the sea
It whispers
and so does she
It roars
and so does she
It flexes
and so does she
all the while flowing 
ever flowing on
and on and on
