A Pocket Of Resistance Poem by Rose Marie Juan-austin

A Pocket Of Resistance

Rating: 5.0

In every individual
There is always
That pocket of resistance.

Never force open
The bud of a flower.
Yield to a right.
Respect the growth.

Let the heart
And mind
Curve their own way.

Strongest alliances
Come from invitation;
They are not enforced.

It's true we should never pressure anyone to grow into what we feel they should be. Every person is like a flower they grow at their own rate. A great insight Rose Marie, a true understanding of human need to grow at one's independence. Others should read and learn this wisdom
