This is so brilliantly stated! Congratulations on your win. Well deserved. I often say it is so much harder to say impactful things with few words than it is to with a lot. You've shown less is more!

Hello Wendy, as I get ready to take on a new position as a before and after school enrichment program teacher I look forward to inspire and kids with words. I do know that words change lives and that is just what I signed up for. Thank you for the reminder and such a beautiful form and a poetry and my beautiful ocean side. It was a delight to read.

Comment from T B Botts
Hello Wendy,
I was just watching on Fox news today as a retired air force general mentioned that in today's world, so much of the war that is being waged is one of words, attempting to influence the listening audience. There is a lot of power in words, and its so easy to toss them out willy-nilly without a thought. Well done gal. Thanks for this reminder.
Have a blessed day.

Yes, words are enormously powerful, to build up and to destroy. We need to be careful. Many thanks for your kind review.

Comment from Bill Schott
This six-word poem, The Power, has the proper word count and makes an important comparison between the power we have no control over and that of which we have complete control. Well said.

You've used your six words well in this poem, Wendy and so factual. The battering waves shape our coastline but the hurtful words can batter a person, sometimes beyond repair. Well done, and good luck in the contest.
