This poem by Rev. Sarah Speed contrasts destructive power (weapons, barriers, exclusion) with transformative power (growth, invitation, connection), emphasizing that true power should crack us open to grow something good, build gardens rather than walls, and bring people together to bear fruit.

Power Like a SeedAdded:
In a world that wants power like a machine gun, power like a bomber plane, power like a gated fence to keep the hungry out, I want power like a seed.
Power that will crack me open and grow something good. Power like an open door, an invitation that says, "Come on in."
Power that feels like a strong spine with a soft heart.
I want the power to listen, to lean in, to ask follow-up questions. But more than anything, I want the power to bring us together, to lift you up. There are different kinds of power. One will build a wall. One will build a garden.
We should know by now only one will bear fruit.
