lightness of being

Reena’s image
in between colours and dreams
she carries the weight of her ancestors 
in her veins and heart
victories and achievements
pain and submission
laugh by the bonfire and paint on her skin
the shine in the eyes and wrinkles of wisdom
her face doesn’t betray the lightness of her being

Reena’s Xploration Challenge #270 – the glory of women
