She gets up every morning
by God's will,
smiles at the first beautiful sight she sees,
the reflection in the mirror right across her room.
Royalty
an african queen
a black beautiful woman.
Whether she dances at funerals,
cries in a style
or eats 'tsiswa' and 'omena'
she is filled with an overwhelming cultural pride.
Whether th sun shines or th rain pours:
she is glad to have the present of today.
She is amazed at her awesomeness
she loves herself most
her deathly sin would be pride.
This royal soul has no tolerance for anyone or anything that doesnt love and respect her throne.
She believes that pretenders are ur worst enemies.
She is quick to anger but quick to forgive.
She is a symbol of fire.
She is a lioness, yes that big cat,
she protects herself
she protects her own
she cares
she listens
she is patient
she has a soft spot for animals (except amphibians, especialy frogs!)
she adores nature.
Loves tourism.
She is a cook,
an artist (makes things),
a writer,
a designer,
a tailor,
a dancer,
a poet
Like a comodial dragon she moves with a great sense of purpose.
Has a because to every friendship.
She is well learned as well as well kept,
she is that kind of lady who cares about her image.
She is keen on the quality of people she attracts
and more attentive on the ones she puts in her heart.
she is a work in progress,
metamophorsizing when necessary
she was brought up this way
Blame her mentors
that is Namatsi
Wetu brings us together, connecting and unifying us through fabric sculptures, dolls, stories, and poetry, symbolizing power and resilience. Experience art rooted in African femininity, healing, and hope.
