She draws pleasures in keeping her home
A keeper of her husband’s most precious treasures
Her darkened skin glow to speak of her heritage
Irin Ajomi: My Sojourn
Life is a journey everyone takes
Considering the time I can start early or late
The certainty of it: is where I belong
Challenges are what bound us
