I give thanks to the sun
for turning my skin
into the deep
warm hues
of my aunties,
whose hands
I admired
as they prepared
our food,
their wrists
adorned
with silver
delicately engraved
and freckled with turquoise.

Making the most of these moments, most of the time.
This is really pretty. I am also thankful.
Thank you ❤️ We are so lucky to have them.
