Golden Roots

by Kiitan Kujembola

Beauty and strength have no better junction than my mother

I chose to capture a constant in my life,

Something seemingly ordinary, her movement, her laughter, the way her presence alone is enough to call home.

Yet in this ordinary, I find something more

She is the rhythm of strength in motion,

a reminder that what sustains us

is not always loud or rare,

but often found in the simple, steady glow

of those we love most.
